A former South Yorkshire Police officer says the force did not suspend the man accused of her rape.
The woman, who cannot be named, said she was attacked by a colleague in 2008 and reported it eight years later after receiving counsellingA former South Yorkshire Police officer who says she was raped by a fellow officer has told the BBC that she believes the force failed her.
Diana, not her real name, said she felt badly let down by the police force after making a complaint about her fellow officer."The rape investigation was more horrific than what that male officer did to me."Diana said she was raped in 2008 but only made a report in 2016 after receiving counselling to deal with the symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.
Diana claims that at no point during the investigation was the fellow officer suspended from his duties. Diana said that before leaving the constabulary she campaigned internally to make it easier for officers to report allegations of sexual abuse committed by colleagues.
