No Angels’ Nadja Benaissa charged in HIV case
February 14th, 2010 - 2:26 pm ICT by ANILondon, Feb 14 (ANI): Nadja Benaissa, the singer from the German girl band No Angels, has been charged with causing bodily harm for failing to tell her sexual partners she was HIV positive.
Prosecutors in Germany said the 27-year-old had sex with three people without telling them she was infected, reports The BBC.
It was last year that the singer was arrested in Frankfurt, shortly before she was due to perform a solo concert.
“She was well aware that any unprotected sexual contact can lead to the virus being passed on,” prosecutors in the town of Darmstadt, near Frankfurt, said.
No Angels formed in 2000 on the international TV show Popstars. (ANI)
