NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – All charges against Uptown plastic surgeon, Dr. Ali Sadeghi, were dropped Thursday morning, according to legal analyst Craig Mordock. But a new indictment is coming, and it’s expected to include a child pornography charge.
Dr. Ali Sadeghi was indicted in May on charges that he raped and secretly videotaped a woman more than once between January 2011 and October 2014.
Sadeghi has “vehemently” denied the allegations, saying through a prepared statement in May that he is “shocked and outraged” and said the charges stem from a personal dispute he had with the alleged victim.
Sadeghi runs the Aesthetic & Reconstructive Breast Center on Prytania Street.
In section A, all charges against uptown plastic surgeon Ali Sadeghi have been dismissed. Could new indictment be forthcoming?
