Bieber suing assault accusers

-

Justin Bieber is suing two social media users for accusing him of sexual assault. Claiming the pair’s allegation­s are “factually impossible” and part of a scheme to seek attention and fame, the singer launched legal action against users who identified themselves only as Danielle (@daniellegl­vn) and Kadi (@Itsnotkadi) for defamation. According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Bieber claims he has “indisputab­le documentar­y evidence” to prove their claims are “outrageous, fabricated lies.” Danielle said Bieber sexually assaulted her in March 2014 at a hotel in Austin, Texas, while Kadi said he sexually assaulted her in May 2015 at a New York City hotel. Bieber is suing for more than US$20 million.
