A Brighton and Hove Albion footballer has been arrested on suspicion of sexual assault after a woman was allegedly attacked in the Sussex town.

The Premier League club later confirmed a player was involved in the investigation.

A Sussex police spokesperson said: “Two men have been arrested after a woman reported being sexually assaulted at a venue in Brighton, in the early hours of Wednesday.

“A man in his 40s and a man in his 20s, both from Brighton, were arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and remain in police custody at this time.”

The woman is receiving specialist support from officers, the spokesperson added.

Is it OK to ask what the time frame is likely to be in a case like this? Worst case and best case?

I won't comment further ( as that generates a slippery slope debate ) but in general terms usually the "best case" is release without charge.

It will be all over t'internet in 5 minutes but it doesn't have to be here. The phrase 'sub judice' should apply.
Indeed it does.
