Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell announced Alex Bangash, 24, faces seven new counts after two women reported assaults in separate incidents.
One woman told authorities she was assaulted at a Gilbert park in December 2022, and another reported an assault at Bangash’s home in July 2023, according to Mitchell.
The new indictment includes two counts of kidnapping, three counts of sexual assault and two counts of aggravated assault.
Bangash was previously indicted in connection with allegations involving five other women. Those charges include multiple counts of sexual assault, kidnapping, aggravated assault, stalking and other offenses, court records show.
He also faces a separate charge of interference with monitoring devices after authorities say he cut off his ankle monitor and fled the state.
