Girl, 15, alleges rape at Junior Cert disco

A 15-YEAR-OLD girl was being interviewed by specialist gardaí yesterday over claims that she was raped by a 14-year-old boy during a Junior Certificate disco.

The boy was expected to be released from custody last night, having been questioned in the company of his father about the alleged rape since late on Wednesday night.

Gardaí are satisfied that sexual intercourse did take place but are awaiting the results of examinations carried out at the Sexual Assault Unit at the Rotunda Hospital.
