INIHAYAG ng rapper na si Nelly na binabalak niyang sampahan ng kaso ang babaeng nagbintang sa kanya ng panghahalay.
Inaresto ang Hot in Here hitmaker sa Washington noong Oktubre makaraang isalaysay ng hindi pinangalanang babae na minolestiya ito ni Nelly sa kanyang tour bus.
Ngunit iginiit nito na hindi ito magsasampa ng kaso laban sa rapper at bilang resulta, ibinasura ng King County prosecutors kaso nitong nakaraang linggo.
Mariing itinanggi ni Nelly ang bintang, at sinabing siya ay “completely innocent” at idinagdag pa na, “I am confident that once the facts are looked at, it will be very clear that I am the victim of a false allegation.”
Ngayon ay nagbabalak siyang kasuhan ang babae.
Sa pahayag na inilabas sa Entertainment Tonight nitong Biyernes, inihayag ng abogado ng hitmaker sa ET na, “The formal close of the investigation into the false allegations made against Nelly is of course welcome -- however expected.
“Nelly recognises the need for women who are victims of sexual assault of any kind to be heard and our existing systems changed. Nelly supports various women’s advocacy groups that deal with Sexual Assault, and violence against women and is dedicated to raising awareness and furthering the conversation to bring about necessary changes. However, this type of reckless false allegation cannot be tolerated as it is an affront to the real survivors of sexual assault.
“Nelly has suffered very real damage to his reputation. He has incurred economic loss and painfully has watched his family suffer. As a result Nelly is planning to proceed with litigation as the first step in restoring his reputation.” - Cover Media
