Allegations of Sexual
Abuse in NZ |
|
An Auckland woman who told police she
had been kidnapped and set on fire has been charged with arson and making a
false complaint. The woman, 53, needed hospital
treatment for burns after her black 1998 BMW car was set on fire in the
Auckland Domain. She told police she was checking
her car about 11.30pm on July 4 outside her suburban home when a man got into
the driver's seat and drove off with her in it. She said she was driven to the
domain where her kidnapper doused her and the car in petrol and set them
alight. Police said the woman had appeared
in Auckland District Court accused of arson and making a false complaint and
remanded until October for a pre-depositions hearing. |
