RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT CHARGES:- THOMAS PARTEY GRANTED CONDITIONAL BAIL AFTER APPEARING IN COURT
Former Arsenal footballer Thomas Partey has been granted conditional bail after appearing in court on rape and sexual assault charges.
The five charges relate to three women and the offences are reported to have taken place between 2021 and 2022 as Partey denies all the charges against him.
The hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday lasted less than 15 minutes and Partey was not asked to enter a plea, but only if he understood the charges and the conditions of his bail.
Partey’s case has now been transferred to a Crown Court for trial. He is next due in court at the Old Bailey on September.
