N-Dubz rapper Dappy could be looking at three years in jail after being found guilty of assault and affray.

The rapper stood trial at Guilford Crown Court after a brawl in a petrol station in February 2012. He pleaded not guilty to the charges, but was yesterday found guilty.

It has now been reported that the 'No Regrets' rapper could face a prison spell of up to three years, despite claiming after the verdict was heard that it wasn't 'right' that he had been found guilty.

"Not guilty For spitting at the Females but Guilty for defending my self from the 3 Males!!!! #ThisAintRight," he tweeted after standing trial.

Three years is the maximum jail time for the offences he has been found guilty of.

Dappy faced charges of affray from an incident which took place in February last year, and left three men with what have been described as 'severe facial injuries'.

He also faced charges of assault after he spat at two 18-year-old girls, Grace Elizabeth Cochran and Serena Burton, and beat 23-year-old David Jenkins.

He told the court that when one man put him in a headlock, he could not breathe, explaining, "They had it in for me. I feared for my life. This is the worst thing in my life that ever happened."

Dappy denied the allegations, but claimed he was drunk at the time.
