Police Launch Investigation Into Katy Perry Following Sexual Assault Allegations By Ruby Rose

The Victoria Police in Australia have officially launched an investigation into pop star Katy Perry following serious allegations of sexual assault made by actress Ruby Rose.

According to a statement shared with TMZ, detectives in Melbourne are looking into a “historical sexual assault” that reportedly took place at a licensed venue in the city’s Central Business District in 2010.

The investigation follows a series of social media posts by Ruby Rose, who claimed that the singer assaulted her at a nightclub over 15 years ago when the actress was in her early 20s. Following the filing of an official police report, Ruby informed her followers on Threads that she is no longer permitted to speak publicly about the specifics of the case.

Katy Perry has strongly denied the accusations. A representative for the singer described the claims as “categorically false” and labelled them “dangerous, reckless lies.” The singer’s team also pointed to Ruby Rose’s history of making public allegations against various individuals, which have been denied in the past.

As the authorities in Australia begin their formal probe into the incident, the legal teams for both stars are expected to address the matter in court. The outcome now rests with the Victoria Police as they review the details of the decade-old claim.
