ADAM ANT was in court in LONDON today (July 3) after being accused of charges relating to an alleged incident in a pub.


The flamboyant 80s star, appearing under his real name Stuart Goddard, is accused of criminal damage, assault causing actual bodily harm and possession of a firearm or imitation firearm with intention to cause fear of violence.


Goddard, now clean shaven, pleaded not guilty to the events that occurred on January 12 this year at the Prince Of Wales pub in Kentish Town, north London, according to BBC reports.

Goddard faces trial on August 12 and a pre-trial hearing will be held next Wednesday (July 10). Goddard, who was sectioned and placed in psychiatric care for a time immediately following the incident, had his bail continued.
