A policeman who is accused of raping a policewoman at her home on August 18, appeared in the Home Circuit Court yesterday.
He is 22-year-old Detective Constable Adrian Johnson.
He has been granted bail in the sum of $400,000 with a surety to return to court on October 24.
It is being alleged that, on August 18, the policewoman asked the accused to transport her home. While he was at the policewoman's house, the accused allegedly committed the offences of rape and indecent assault. A report was made to the police that same day.
Statements were collected and submitted to the Director of Public Prosecutions, who ruled that the policeman must be charged with rape and indecent assault.
The policeman was charged yesterday morning and taken before the court.
Attorney-at-law Carolyn Reid-Cameron, in making the bail application, said the accused did not rape the policewoman. She said the complainant and the accused were lovers.
Justice Carol Beswick granted the policeman bail and ordered him to report to the Constant Spring Police Station on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
