May 14 (THAINDIAN NEWS) In a press conference which was held by the famous attorney, Gloria Allred, in her office, a new victim in the saga against the world known movie director, Roman Polanski has come forward. Charlotte Lewis, an actress who appeared in Polanski’s Pirates in 1986, and also starred in The Golden Child is speaking out against the filmmaker, and her story sounds all too familiar.

According to Lewis’s story, she claims that Polanski sexually abused her “in the worst way possible” when she was just 16 years old. The alleged attack occurred in Paris in 1982, four years after he left the US in an attempt to escape punishment for the crime of sexual assault on a 13 year old girl, Samantha Garner. He has managed to avoid sentencing in that crime for the last 30 years.

Lewis stated that the director knew that she was 16 at the time of the attack. She is saying that he “forced himself” on her in his apartment. The legal age of consent in Paris is 15. “He took advantage of me,” Lewis said. “What I want is justice.”
