Aggros Santos charged with raping two women

[Sharon]

I don't even like his music, he's not that known either.

The 22-year-old is accused of raping a woman in Chichester, West Sussex, on May 7.


He is also accused of raping another in Yeovil, Somerset, between September 25 and 26 last year.

The Chichester charge is understood to relate to an incident in the city which is said to have taken place after a gig Santos played at a university.


A 21-year-old man, Tyrelle Ritchie, has been charged with one count of rape relating to the alleged Chichester incident.


Brazilian-born Santos, whose real real name is Yuri, 'vehemently denies' the allegations, according to his solicitor, Phil Smith.


Mr Smith said: 'My client is shocked and appalled that he has been charged over these trumped-up allegations which are completely false.


'He vehemently denies these charges and will be vigorously fighting them.'


A Sussex Police spokesman said: 'The Crown Prosecution Service has authorised Sussex Police to charge a man in relation to two separate investigations of rape in Somerset and Sussex and a second man in relation to the offence in Sussex.


'Yuri Santos, 22, of Bickersteth Road, London, has been charged with two offences of rape; one in Chichester on 7 May, 2011, and another in Yeovil between 25 and 26 September last year.

'Tyrelle Ritchie, 21, Vauxhall Road, London, has been charged with one offence of rape in Chichester on 7 May, 2011.


Both Santos and Ritchie have been released on bail and will appear at Chichester Magistrates Court on September 19.

hard to know what to say really because we don't know any of the details! If it is true I hope that justice will prevail and they're found guilty!
