Russell Brand is facing fresh allegations of sex offences and predatory behaviour.

The new claims have been detailed in a report by a British newspaper.

Brand has not responded to the latest allegations.

Convicted rapist Russell Brand is facing fresh allegations of predatory behaviour and committing sexual offences, after six new accusers went public on Friday.

Warning: This story contains details some readers may find distressing.

A London court earlier this week jailed Brand for a decade, after he was found guilty of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault.

He was cleared of four other charges, including two of rape, one of sexual assault and one of attempted indecent assault.

Brand's four-week trial made global headlines and heard from six women who had made criminal complaints about the former actor and comedian.

On Friday, local time, The Times newspaper published a report which detailed fresh allegations from six new accusers .

The Times and UK broadcaster Channel 4 were the first media outlets to publish allegations against Brand in 2023, and their reporting led several women to go to the police with their evidence.

One of the new accusers claims Brand had sex with her without seeking consent and a second alleges that he continued having sex with her after she asked him to stop.

Several of the women claim they met the former star after attending his stand-up shows.

During Brand's trial, the court heard evidence he had used these live performances as a way of pursuing women.

While the allegations aired in court covered a 10-year period from 1999, some of the fresh accusations date to 2015.

One of the new accusers told The Times, Brand was "like a vampire, trying to take something from women".

Brand has not officially responded to the latest allegations.

At Southwark Crown Court earlier this month, the jury of eight men and four women took just over eight hours to reach their verdicts in Brand's case.

During Monday's sentencing hearing, Judge Joel Bennathan said Brand had shown a "casual and arrogant disregard for women" who had said no to him, and that "fame meant you could act how you liked, when you liked".

"Whatever women wear, wherever they go, indeed whatever they drink, they retain the right to say no and to demand justice from the criminal courts when sexual predators like you, Russell Brand, act without their consent," Judge Bennathan said.

On the day Brand was found guilty, his lawyer, Ian Winter KC allegedly confronted a journalist from The Sunday Times who had investigated his client.

The barrister has subsequently reported himself to The Bar Standards Board.
