The BBC is now also facing “urgent questions” after it was claimed Brand used the car service provided by the corporation to pick the girl up from school.
It comes as the BBC and Channel 4 launched internal investigations into separate accusations of predatory behavior by Brand towards staff and members of the public during the period of his employment.
Channel 4 has since removed all programs linked to Brand from its website, including episodes of The Great British Bake Off and Big Brother’s Big Mouth in which he featured, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Netflix has since been asked to remove its comedy special, titled Re:Birth, from its streaming catalog.
The BBC investigation was announced minutes before Scotland Yard piled on the pressure by announcing detectives would like to speak to the comedian’s alleged victims.
Among the complaints raised during the investigation were allegations from a woman, who said Brand had raped her. against the wall of his Los Angeles home.
Another woman claimed the comedian sexually assaulted her while she was working with him in Los Angeles and threatened legal action if she told anyone.
While the third claimed to have been sexually assaulted by Brand who, according to her, was physically and emotionally violent towards her.
The fourth woman, called Alice to protect her identity, said she was 16 when he strangled her during a sex act.
She alleges that he took her virginity, was “concerned” about her being “innocent and pure” and often called her “the child.”
Alice described his behavior towards her as “grooming”, as Brand allegedly provided her with scripts on how to trick her parents into allowing him to visit. She also claimed he would send his “BBC car” to her secondary school to pick her up.
“The first time I used it, he told me it was booked to take him to his radio show, but he had a friend taking him instead, so I should use that car ” she told the Times.
She claimed the driver once took her from Brand’s home to her grandmother’s and that on another occasion the same car “picked me up from school.”
Alice added: “It was the same car… I knew it was a BBC car.”
The BBC had not initially committed to launching an investigation, but in the face of growing outcry it changed its position last night and a spokesperson said it was “urgently investigating these issues”.
In a statement, a BBC spokesperson said: “The documentary and associated reports contained serious allegations spanning several years.
“Russell Brand worked on BBC radio programs between 2006 and 2008 and we are urgently investigating the issues raised.”
Brand hit out at “aggressive” media claims by insisting that all the relationships he had “during his promiscuous period” were “consensual” in a 2 minute 45 second monologue to his 11 million fans of followers on X and 6.5 million subscribers on YouTube.
He accused news organizations of coordinating an attack on him, telling his supporters: “Is there another agenda at play?”
“Especially when we’ve already seen coordinated media attacks, like that of Joe Rogan, when he dared to take a drug that the mainstream media didn’t approve of, and we’ve seen a series of media headlines from the whole world using the same language.’
