Comedian and actor Russell Brand has been accused of rape, sexual assault and other abusive behaviour during the height of his Hollywood fame.

In a joint investigation published Saturday by the Times of London and Dispatches, a news programme on Britain's Channel 4, numerous women allege that they were sexually assaulted by Brand between 2006 and 2013, during which time he rose from eccentric British TV personality to debauched Hollywood star.
