Kathmandu, Feb 23

A rape complaint has been filed against actor Paul Shah.

A 17-year-old singer has reached the District Police Ofice, Tanahu and filed the commplaint against Shah. Gandaki Police said the complaint has been registered and entered legal process.

Shah has been accused by the singer, who is a minor and cannot legally give consent for sex, of having sex with her promising to marry her in the future.

The singer had reached the Kaski Police complaining that Shah sexually abused her a month back. Shah seems to have tried to reach a settlement after the Kaski Police refused to register the complaint citing lack of jurisdiction and advised the girl to go to the Tanahu Police instead as the alleged incident happened in Tanahu.

Audio of the conversation between the two in the intervening period has already been transmitted on the social media where actor Shah has accepted that he had sex with her.
