“Shahs of Sunset” star Shervin Roohparvar is suing a woman he claims is trying to extort him for hundreds of thousands of dollars after alleging he tried to slip her a date rape drug.
According to new legal docs — obtained by TMZ — Shervin says he met up with the woman in Vegas last December after the two connected on social media.
Shervin claims they met at his hotel, had a drink and chatted before he told her he had to get ready for a business engagement. He claims the woman, without warning, started shouting obscenities — accusing him of slipping her a drug — and bolted from the room.
The lawsuit alleges the woman also told cops he’d drugged her, but cops took no action against him. About a month after the confrontation, Shervin says he got a letter from her agent threatening to rat him out to production companies about the incidents unless he forked over $350k.
