Staff at Rape Crisis in Taranaki
are concerned women who suspect they have been raped after being drugged are
not reporting it to the police. The organisation says the number
of incidents in the region has grown to nine, after two more complaints came
to its attention yesterday. The police say they are
investigating one complaint although it appears unlikely to be a drug rape at
this stage. Another case could not be
confirmed. The police however are advising
women to take care when going out over the weekend. Rape Crisis says anyone who
suspects they might have been drugged and raped should go to the police
immediately. One counsellor Lorraine Jans says women must move fast if they
think they have been violated. |
