Our family is having the most difficult time of our lives and everyone is heartbroken after hearing what happened to my brother, falsely accused of rape. He spent one night with his friend last year and she accused him of rape recently. Because they are both international students studying in UK, I am not sure how the law will work. None of family members live in UK to support my brother so we are very concerned about both his mental and physical health. He’s not coping this at all. He is in a severe depression.
He was arrested at the airport; two police officers told him he was under arrest for suspicion of committing rape. He regrettably provided to the police what he remembers without proper representation. Police provided solicitor but he was no help but pressure him to listen well to police officers so he can answer. (He is not perfect in English) He is now on bail with conditions, not contacting victim and the witnesses who were at the house party on the night of the question. Even though they had intercourse after guests are all gone. He is scheduled to have an interview on Jan.
My brother believes her motivation is exacting revenge because she believes he started rumors about her promiscuity.
After party is over, they spent a night together – naturally progressed to have intercourse without any refusal from her. After that night, they didn’t make any arrangements to meet privately though. But they met each other at small clubs and on the streets occasionally and greeted each other warmly every time. However, sometime afterwards the victim believed my brother and his friends were spreading rumors of her being a slut. He heard this so tried to assure her that they are not spreading such rumors through one of her friend. But they slowly drifted further apart. And now my brother is falsely accused of rape.
After he was arrested for a day, he and his best friends met and my brother found out that the victim slept with his best friend 3 days after the night of the question.
Status regarding message history: She unsubscribed a messaging app that our people use (it’s the only app our people mainly use for message), and because my brother also had to reset his phone after upgrading his cell phone, the messages that they sent each other is not in his history. Trying to figure out how to recover them.
This is completely ruining all of us and one of the elders in family is in a hospital after hearing this bad news. The police took my brother’s belongings such as lab tap, hard ware, memory card, and passport. They treated him as a rapist without any proof. UK is not their country, they are both international students from the same country but she reported to UK police. We don’t know anything about law system in UK and we need help finding the right legal person.
Called the embassy to get help and they introduced one barrister from big company. Her pay is 600 pound per meeting or hour? They will have conference next week. Fee is very high and she is a barrister so we need to get a solicitor separately. If you have any recommendations of solicitor and barrister, please help us and if you have any thoughts or experience to tell, please share with us. Thank you very much!
