Rape urban myth Drug-rapes
- Taranaki Hysteria December 2006 |
|
|
Taranaki police have still not
heard from the eight women who say they were drugged and raped after drinking
at bars in the region. Rape Crisis has heard complaints
from eight women this week, who had been at pubs in New Plymouth and
Stratford. Detective Senior Sergeant Grant Coward
says police would like to hear from the women, so they can try to find those
responsible. He says there is often a good reason why women do not talk to
police, but it is important they do, so an investigation can be launched. Mr Coward is also warning those
heading out this weekend, to keep an eye on their drinks, and refuse drinks
from strangers. |
