Allegations
of Sexual Abuse in NZ |
|
A woman from Chch, who claimed she was attacked while out jogging, has
appeared in court charged with making a false statement to the police. She had reported being
stabbed at the Styx Mill Reserve last month, sparking a huge search. Judge Oke Blaikie suggested that a
plea of not guilty be entered, for the matter to be considered further at a
status hearing in August. Blaikie ordered that interim
name suppression continue - saying the woman had suffered from serious health
problems and increased stress levels prior to the incident |
