21-year-old Brenda Chepkoech accused Chris Brown of smashing her Kes 90,000 iPhone at Moi International Airport when she requested to take a selfie with him.

It was later proved that Breezy didn’t break the expensive phone as it turned out that Brenda was imposing herself upon the American singer.

Well, CB isn’t off the hook just yet; Kenyan photographer, Michael Khateli, has slapped the singer with a case of copyright infringement.

Khateli hasn’t sued Chris Brown per se but he has called out the singer for ‘stealing’ his photo by cropping credits and uploading it on his Instagram handle.

Khateli claims he was the one who took the photo Chris Brown posted on Instagram. He says he attended Breezy’s concert at Mombasa Golf Club to take professional photos. And the one Chris Brown ‘stole’ was among the many she took

Khateli told Ghafla! he didn’t want Chris Brown to compensate him with money; he explained photography was his livelihood and that all he needed was credit.

“If you take somebody’s work, you credit them. If you are to use it (referring to his photo) even if you don’t pay me, credit,”  Khateli told Ghafla! over the phone.
