NSW: Gang rapists should stand trial together: Brogden
The New South Wales opposition says alleged gang rapists should stand trial together
so victims are not forced to give evidence several times.
Opposition legal affairs spokesman ANDREW TINK says accused rapists who've attacked
in a gang should be tried in a gang.
His comments come after a NSW District Court judge yesterday told a jury to find two
men not guilty of aggravated indecent assault.
The alleged victim had testified at the trial of two other men convicted over the 2003
attack, but could not bring herself to give evidence again.
NSW Police Commissioner KEN MORONEY says he feels sympathy for the woman in yesterday's
District Court case.
