benjamin mendy was refused bail after a jail meltdown because he thought the vulnerable prisoner wing meant vip's

Manchester City footballer Benjamin Mendy was today refused bail ahead of a potential trial on rape charges - amid reports he had a 'meltdown'  in prison because he mistakenly thought he would be housed in a 'VIP wing'.

The 27-year-old, who is charged with four counts of rape and one sexual assault, was told by guards at HMP Altcourse in Merseyside after he arrived there last Friday that he would be placed in the VP wing for vulnerable prisoners. 

However the footballer mistakenly assumed he would be housed in a VIP wing for celebrity figures at the Category B jail and was left experiencing a 'rude awakening' when he realised this was not the case, it is claimed.

A source told The Sun: 'When Mendy arrived staff explained he was going to be kept on the VP wing for his own safety.

'He had a rude awakening when he saw the cell and realised who he was going to be mixing with.

'He wasn't happy and it was a very sobering experience for him.' 

Today, another bail application was made at Chester Crown Court in a hearing held behind closed doors, which lasted about 50 minutes.

Mendy, who also plays for the French national team, did not attend court.

Honorary Recorder of Chester Judge Steven Everett refused the application, a court spokesman said.

Mendy is charged with attacks on three different women, including one under 18, at his home in Prestbury, Cheshire.

He is also charged with raping a woman last month.

The footballer, who has been suspended by the club pending investigation, is due to appear at Chester Crown Court on September 10.

A second man, aged 40, was arrested on suspicion of rape as part of the police investigation into the allegations but was released on bail, Cheshire Constabulary said.
