Just saw this story about the Layla Ibrahim case.

www.guardian.co.uk/law/2011/aug/12/layla-jailed-after-reporting-sexual-assault

She served 13 months for "falsely reporting a sexual assault," despite the police doctor who examined her after her assault testifying in Layla's defence, stating her injuries were consistent with a sexual assault.

AIBU to be absolutely shocked by this?

This has made my blood boil. How can we show support? Read about it today and thought MN has to get involved.

When I read the OP I presumed it would be in another country.
