reaccusing
Alleging once more
Reaccusing is accusing again or anew, typically after an earlier accusation has been addressed, dismissed, or resolved: Despite the acquittal, witnesses kept reaccusing him in the press.
The word implies repetition of a charge already made, often with a sense of persistence or renewed attack.
