NFL player Josh McNary placed on exempt list after rape charge
Josh Mcnary #57 (2nd L)
Indianapolis - Arab Today
The Indianapolis Colts have placed linebacker Josh McNary on the commissioner's exempt list, a day after he was charged with rape.
US prosecutors charged the 26-year-old McNary, of Houston, Texas, with one count of rape, one count of criminal confinement and one count of battery resulting in bodily injury, court documents showed on Wednesday.
The commissioner's exempt list is the same status Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson was given in September while dealing with legal issues in connection with child abuse charges.
McNary, who plays on special teams, was charged after a 29-year-old woman was allegedly held against her will in a downtown apartment last month.
The league recently stepped up its policy for addressing assault and domestic violence following criticism of the way it handled allegations of crimes against women.
McNary appeared in 15 games for the Colts this season, recording 28 tackles.
Indianapolis plays the New England Patriots in the American Football Conference championship game on Sunday with the winner advancing to the Super Bowl.

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris.

Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
