The Courts of Law might think so. A well known pop star was back at his Surrey home today, amid allegations that he had tried to chock his Russian lover and threatened to stub a cigarette out in her face.

The new claim's about the Rolling Stone's conduct follow his arrest on suspicion of assaulting his girlfriend during a row in Claygate High Street, Esher.

Witnesses alleged that the 62 year - old guitarist pinned his girlfriend to the group while holding her neck and dragging her down to the street.

He is reported to have walked away only after being challenged by a passer - by. He spent a night in police cells after police were called and has been bailed until next month.
