Bouncer denies AFL rookie brother attack

A bouncer accused of attacking the brother of Geelong rookie Jordan Clark in Perth has pleaded not guilty to causing grievous bodily harm.

Ishmar Rasul Muhammad, 48, was working at the Coconut Grove bar in Northbridge on April 28 when he allegedly held Mitchell Clark, 19, in a headlock, causing him to lose consciousness and hit his head on the pavement.

Police previously said Mr Clark suffered several fractures to his lower jaw, a deep laceration under his chin and eight chipped teeth.

Muhammad faced Perth Magistrates Court on Tuesday where he pleaded not guilty and was granted bail.

He is scheduled to appear back in court on July 23.
