Justin Bieber, who was indirectly involved in an alleged brawl outside a NYC nightclub, could be banned from entering the United States if he's convicted of assault or battery.

Police officers have confirmed that they are currently investigating an incident, which occurred in Southampton club South Pointe, where the Canadian singer's security guards were accused of being "heavy handed" and "intimidating" to other party-goers.

Immigration attorney Richard Yemm told US magazine Star that the 'Baby' hit maker could also be placed into removal proceedings from the United States, if he is charged of assault, the Mirror reported.

Another US report has claimed that although, law enforcement were not called to the spot, a police rep said that an unidentified male victim at the club received medical treatment in a nearby hospital and filed a complaint.
