A 33-year-old man has been indicted on multiple felony charges for allegedly raping a woman in a Westchester County hotel, according to authorities.
Nua Mitaj, 33, of New Rochelle, was arraigned before a Westchester County judge on Tuesday, March 24, on counts of first-degree rape, third-degree rape, and first-degree sexual abuse, according to the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office.
Prosecutors claim the incident occurred in the early morning hours of December 29, 2024, at a hotel in New Rochelle. The DA’s Office did not disclose the exact hotel.
According to a felony complaint, Mitaj forced the victim to engage in sexual contact and intercourse despite her protests. He has also been accused of wrongful imprisonment.
Mitaj has posted bail, which was set at $10,000 cash, $20,000 bond, or $30,000 partially secured bond, and is scheduled to appear in court again on June 23.
A provisional order of protection has been issued on behalf of the victim.
District Attorney Susan Cacace stated that the matter will be pursued forcefully.
“No” means no. That is the beginning and end of the conversation…we will ensure that he is promptly punished and held accountable for his alleged actions,” Cacace said in a statement on Thursday.
The New Rochelle Police Department performed the inquiry.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Mitaj is the CEO of New World Euro Construction Corp., which is situated in New Rochelle.
