It’s understood that the officers went to a nightclub for drinks, where they met two women, both aged 21.

The group all agreed to leave and go back to a guest house together.

That’s where it’s alleged one of the officers then proceeded to rape one of the women, and the women later reported the crime at a nearby police station.

One of the officers will remain behind bars and will be back in court later in June for a formal bail application, while the other was released as police didn’t have enough evidence to implicate him.
