Audun Carlsen, a 29-year old Norwegian escort service provider, stood by his earlier statement accusing singer Boy George of handcuffing him and beating him up. This time though, Carlsen has stated this as a witness against the 49-year old George O’Dowd (also popularly known as Boy George) during the official trial for the false imprisonment and assault charges against the former Culture Club star.

Carlsen said he met Boy George online and the latter has invited him to his home in London for a kinky photo shoot. This was followed by another photo shoot in 2007 despite the fact that Boy George has accused him of hacking into the singer’s computer after the first photo shoot.

Carlsen alleged that he was beaten by Boy George along with another man during the second photo shoot. And after slapping, beating and punching him, he said, he was handcuffed by Boy George .He was only able to escape after he unscrewed a hook. Carlsen said he had a hard time opening the door so Boy George was able to still hit him with a metal chain before he was able to run outside wearing only his underwear.

Boy George’s accuser had the arm and head injuries to prove his allegations against the singer and these were documented in photographs which were shown to the court. Boy George, who was earlier required to render community service after cocaine was found in his apartment, is presently out on bail. He was scheduled to go on a summer tour in the United States but it did not push through because he was not issued a visa.
