Detectives have said they are yet to find evidence that an alleged rape outside a church took place as reported or that any immigrants or asylum seekers were involved. Surrey Police previously received a report that a woman in her 20s had been followed and assaulted outside the church in Ashley Road, Epsom, after leaving Labyrinth Epsom nightclub on Saturday between 2am and 4am.
And the refusal to issue a description (after the Southport affair, supposedly a lesson learned) led to big trouble in little Epsom...
In a statement released today, Assistant Chief Constable for Local Policing Sarah Grahame said: 'Over the past week, there has been widespread speculation and commentary following a report of a rape in Epsom in the early hours of Saturday.
'We are aware of the strength of feeling this has created, and of the frustration caused by our limited public comment on the matter.
'During this time, we have been investigating in depth to establish the sequence of events and to clarify the circumstances surrounding the reported incident. We have reviewed an extensive amount of CCTV footage from the area.
'We have also been interviewing potential witnesses, carrying out forensics investigations and conducting house-to-house enquiries.
'To date, we have not found any evidence of the offence as reported but the investigation is ongoing.'
Interesting phrasing, implying something went on - are the police so utterly captured now that they feel confident in publicly labelling a woman a liar, or a slut, rather than admit that there may be a problem with illrgal ethnics from Third World cultures?
Of course, they feel safe to do so because the woman has anonymity. If she chooses to forgo that, this story may not go away.
