Detectives investigating the rape of a woman in Ashford are appealing for three men who came to the woman’s assistance to come forward.
The woman reported that she had been approached by a man in an alleyway in Ashford High Street during the early hours of Saturday 31 July 2021 and that he had raped her before leaving the scene.
It is believed three men walked with her a short distance before she left in a taxi.

They may not have known what had happened to her.’
