Washington, June 22 (TIWN) US President Donald Trump has dismissed allegations that he raped a woman in a dressing room of an upscale Manhattan department store in the mid-1990s, terming it "fiction".
The US president says he never met E. Jean Carroll and accuses her of making up the allegation to sell a new book.
Ms Carroll says she did not report the alleged attack at the time after being advised by a friend she had no chance of winning in court.
Her story was published in New York magazine on Friday.
More than a dozen women have previously made sexual misconduct allegations against Mr Trump, which he has denied.
