**Headline:** Paul Gallagher, Older Brother of Oasis Stars, Pleads Not Guilty to Rape and Assault Charges
Paul Gallagher, the 59-year-old brother of Oasis frontmen Liam and Noel Gallagher, has denied a charge of rape along with several other serious allegations. Appearing at Southwark Crown Court, Gallagher also pleaded not guilty to charges that include coercive and controlling behavior, three counts of sexual assault, three counts of intentional strangulation, two counts of making threats to kill, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
The charges stem from incidents alleged to have occurred between 2022 and 2024. Gallagher, who resides in East Finchley, north London, made his pleas from the dock during a court session on September 26, 2025. Dressed in a dark suit and thick-rimmed glasses, he was granted conditional bail and is scheduled to stand trial on September 13, 2027.
