Paul Gallagher: Older brother of Oasis stars Liam and Noel denies rape charge | UK News

The older brother of Oasis stars Liam and Noel Gallagher has denied a charge of rape.

Paul Gallagher, 59, has also pleaded not guilty to coercive and controlling behaviour, three counts of sexual assault, three counts of intentional strangulation, two counts of making a threat to kill, and assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

The alleged offences took place between 2022 and 2024, according to a charge sheet.

Gallagher, of East Finchley, north London, entered his pleas from the dock at Harrow Crown Court, which was sitting at Southwark Crown Court on Friday.

He was wearing a dark suit and shirt, and thick-rimmed glasses.

Gallagher was released on conditional bail and will face trial on September 13, 2027.

Judge Anupama Thompson told him: “I’m very sorry that it’s such a long time away, but we have a number of cases that need to be listed.”

Paul Gallagher, who is about a year older than Noel and seven years older than Liam, has never been involved in Oasis.
