Pop star Rihanna has issued a statement thanking fans for their support after an alleged assault by her R&B singer boyfriend Chris Brown.However, she declined to comment on a leaked photograph which appears to show her with facial injuries.
"At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident involving Chris Brown," the star said via her spokesperson.
"She wants to assure her fans that she remains strong."

Brown was questioned by police on 8 February over a complaint of assault.
Police said the 19-year-old got into an argument with an unidentified woman in a parked car in the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles, which escalated after they left the vehicle.
Both Brown and Rihanna pulled out of that night's Grammy awards, where they had been due to perform.
He has since said he was "sorry and saddened" by the incident and was seeking counselling.
Prosecutors have asked police to provide more information before deciding what charges, if any, to pursue against him
