A criminal complaint has accused former New York governor Andrew Cuomo of committing a sex crime, though there were reports that the document might have been submitted in error.

The brief complaint, filed by an investigator with the Albany County Sheriff’s Office, accused Mr Cuomo of putting his hand under a woman’s shirt on December 7, 2020.
