A Tarrant County grand jury has decided not to indict Dr. Samir Shah, a Dallas neurologist who was arrested in October 2024 on charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child.
Dr. Shah's legal team announced that the grand jury issued a "no-bill" on Friday, signifying that they did not find sufficient evidence to move forward with a criminal prosecution in the case. Dr. Shah was taken into custody on October 28, 2024, following the allegations.
Following his arrest, the Texas Medical Board temporarily suspended Dr. Shah's medical license in December, citing concerns for public safety. Public records indicate that Dr. Shah had been practicing medicine in Texas for 15 years and had affiliations with multiple medical centers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Neither the police department nor the Texas Medical Board has released any specific details concerning the alleged assault. The decision by the grand jury means that Dr. Shah will not face criminal charges in Tarrant County related to this particular allegation.
