American singer R Kelly has been accused of sexually exploiting a teenage boy at McDonald's.

US prosecutors, on Friday, brought to light fresh allegations against him in a new filing in the ongoing case. They are also seeking a jury to be selected on August 9 in New York to hear testimonies of multiple other alleged victims claiming to have been subjected to physical abuse by the singer or being threatened by him.

Part of the filing, is an accusation by an individual who claims to have been sexually abused by the singer when he was 17 in 2006 at a McDonald’s.

Reports revealed that the teenager was aiming to make it big in the music industry and Kelly had offered help before exploiting him.

The same teenager had introduced the singer to another minor boy, 16 or 17, with whom Kelly began a relationship years later, as per the filing.

All allegations have been denied by the singer.
