The alleged victim of a violent gang rape has told police she does not want the case to proceed, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions says.
Adam Jade Pinner, the alleged leader of the rape, had faced a charge of aggravated sexual assault in company before the charge was dropped in Downing Centre Local Court today.
The ODPP today said the victim told police she did not intend to give evidence.
"The complainant indicated strongly to the police, ODPP officers and Witness Assistance Services officers that she did not want the case to proceed and that she did not intend to give evidence in the proceedings," the ODPP said in a statement.
She was alleged to have been raped for up to an hour on the evening of June 8, after she was lured into a public toilet near the Chinese Gardens, at Darling Harbour.
