The Gender Action Project (GAP) will be having a silent sit-in in the library quad on Tuesday, 24 February at 19h00. This event is in solidarity with rape survivors, taking into account the recent rape of a first year student last Friday. Regardless of the innocence of the accused, GAP feels that the rape survivor needs to be aware that GAP, staff and students of the university stand beside her in solidarity.
We call on the justice system to speedily resolve the case for the benefit of all parties. The lives of both individuals are currently on hold – and both are currently being victimised by a criminal justice system which is holding up the process of justice being served. GAP is holding a ‘Justice Delayed is Justice Denied’ march on Friday, 27 February at 13h15. The march will begin at the Drostdy Arch and proceed down High Street ending at the High Court.
