Guildford faces fresh allegations

THE fallout from All Blacks winger Zac Guildford’s drunken binge last week continues as he has now been accused of sexual harassment.

Guildford faces fresh allegations

Guildford made headlines when it was revealed that he staggering naked and bleeding into a bar then assaulting two people while on holiday in the Cook Islands.

Kelly Pick, a triathlete in the small Pacific nation, said Guildford also repeatedly made lewd sexual comments and harassed her as she was on a training run along a road on the main island Rarotonga.

“His behaviour was totally inappropriate to the point where I felt unsafe,” Pick wrote in a letter published in the Cook Islands News.

“He was obviously highly intoxicated and driving his rental scooter very dangerously and speeding like an idiot. I got back from my run shaken and angry that someone feels they have the right to harass and leer at other people.”

Pick told Radio New Zealand she had lodged a complaint with police about Guildford’s behaviour last Thursday.

“(He) can’t just continue this kind of behaviour and there be no consequences for him,” she said.

Guildford, 22, issued an apology over his conduct, saying he was “hugely embarrassed” and would seek help to “sort myself out”.
