Borough’s top cop: ‘Number of unsolved rapes is small’

Seven rapes by strangers remain unsolved in the borough, a Freedom of Information request has revealed.

The information was gathered between 1998 and 2008 and there were a further 21 rape cases where the relationship between the rapist and victim was not stated.
