Justin Bieber is showing his support for Chris Brown after the latter’s recent arrest in the U.K.
“Welcome home,” Bieber, 31, commented on Brown’s Thursday, May 22, Instagram post showing the “Forever” singer exiting a private jet. Brown captioned the shot, “Cook, remain humble. 
”
Brown also received support from rapper Sexyy Red, who commented, “They freed my man 
.”
Brown was released on £6.7 million bail on Wednesday, May 21, a week after his arrest in Manchester, England, in connection with an alleged 2023 London nightclub assault.
The singer, 36, was arrested and charged with grievous bodily harm on May 15 after flying into Manchester. He is accused of attacking music producer Abe Diaw with a tequila bottle at a London nightclub in February 2023, per BBC News.
“We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Chris Brown with one count of grievous bodily harm, contrary to section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861,” said prosecutor Adele Kelly in a statement.
Kelly added “criminal proceedings against this defendant are active” and “he has the right to a fair trial,” per BBC News.
“We can confirm that Chris Brown was involved in an incident with our client, and the injuries sustained are serious. We are pursuing all legal remedies to hold him accountable. At this time, we will let the facts speak for themselves through the proper legal channels,” Diaw’s attorney Ryan J. Daneshrad told TMZ at the time.

“Everyone wants to wait til people die to give them the credit they deserve. I’m calling it now when CB passes away after a long full life, you will miss what you had in front of you the whole time,” Bieber wrote. “Trust me watch you will see. the people who have over looked this mans talent … you need to reevaluate! Love you @chrisbrownofficial.”
