A man who allegedly accosted a young woman ay Hewannorra Orchard Vieux Fort, and tried to drag her into nearby bushes, has now been charged for attempted rape. The man was also charged for damaging the young man’s property in the process. The charges were laid following an identification parade held on Friday. The man was captured last week thanks to two passersby who came to the young woman’s defence when they heard the commotion. They successfully restrained the man and called in the police.
