The police have said they have launched no investigation into a rape allegation by a young Amerindian woman who says that she was drugged and raped recently in Mahdia but instead are investigating assault causing actually bodily harm.
Commander of F Divi-sion Courtney Ramsey revealed that the police have since forwarded the file to the Chambers of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) which has advised that one man be charged with assault causing actual bodily harm.
Apart from this the Guyana Human Rights Authority (GHRA) has also said that the victim was not examined medically at the Mahdia Hospital because no rape kit was available.
The Sunday Stabroek has confirmed that the file was indeed sent to the DPP’s office and has been returned
