BBCSuperdry co-founder James Holder has been found guilty of raping a woman after a night out.
Holder, of Cheltenham in Gloucestershire, was also found not guilty of a charge of assault by penetration by the jury at Cirencester Courthouse on Friday.
Recorder David Chidgey dismissed Holder’s application of bail to get his affairs in order and say goodbye to his family, stating the temptation for him to use his “significant resources” to leave would be “too great”.
The 54-year-old was found guilty by a jury of seven men and five women after a five-day trial at Gloucester Crown Court, sitting in Cirencester.
