Former world boxing champion Mike Tyson is accused of raping a woman in a limousine in the 1990s after meeting her at an Albany nightclub, the Times Union of Albany reported.

According to the quoted source, Tyson should have spoken to the woman at the club about the party and asked her to accompany him. He allegedly raped her in a limousine.

The woman sued the former boxer and is demanding $5 million in compensation.

She sued under a New York law that, starting in November 2022, allows people who have been sexually assaulted more than a year ago to sue their abusers for a period of one year, which would normally be time-barred. .

In 1992, Mike Tyson was sentenced to six years in prison for rape. He was paroled after three years in prison, writes News.ro.
