Rape Crisis Centre warns Junior Cert girls to be alert during celebrations

TEENAGE girls are most at risk during Junior Cert celebrations, the Rape Crisis Centre has warned.

Figures from the Sexual Assault Treatment Unit based in Dublin's Rotunda Hospital show the highest number of sexual assaults and rapes occur on the night of the exam results.

As 61,000 students prepare to party, rape counsellors have warned girls not to let anyone take sexual advantage of them during the celebrations.
