Disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein has been named in a fresh sexual harassment case for assaulting a 16-year-old over a decade back.
The complaint was filed on Wednesday, reports variety.com. The 66-year-old former movie mogul has denied it.
An anonymous woman brought the charges against him, saying she was repeatedly attacked between 2002 and 2011 by the erstwhile American film producer.

The victim said she was 16 and an aspiring model in New York when she met Weinstein.
The accusations fall largely in line with dozens of others made against the now bankrupt The Weinstein Company (TWC) founder, including intimidation, unwanted touching and pressure to perform sexual favours in exchange for a chance at Hollywood fame.
After the initial encounter, the Jane Doe had continued to have dealings with Weinstein, including trying out for America’s Top Model.
