A judge has questioned why police deliberately ignored breaches of bail by Mason Greenwood.
The Manchester United player had been under a criminal investigation after being arrested last January. The accused faced charges of attempted rape, controlling and coercive behaviour and assault in October 2022, but they have since been dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service.
At Greenwood's first court appearance it was revealed that he breached his bail by contacting the alleged victim in the case. Prosecutor Rebecca Macaulay-Addison told the magistrates court hearing in October: “He was arrested on Saturday morning for breaching his police conditional bail. He was found in the company of the complainant.”
