Quote
The singer, whose real name is George O'Dowd, shackled Audun Carlsen, 29, to his bed at his flat in Shoreditch, east London, on April 28 last year after accusing him of tampering with his computer.

Mr Carlsen, from Norway, told a jury at Snaresbrook Crown Court in London that O'Dowd beat him with a metal chain as he tried to escape from the premises.

The former Culture Club star, 46, admitted restraining Mr Carlsen but claimed it was because he had "stolen" photographs of himself - taken during a previous encounter - from the computer and "messed" it up.

O'Dowd, who did not give evidence at the trial, denied to police that he punched or assaulted Mr Carlsen or swung a chain at him as the escort fled the flat.

He suggested that bruises Mr Carlsen sustained could have been due to the fact that he was HIV positive.
