Former Police Officer Says Colonel Attacked Her After She Found List of Women
Listen to the story
A former military police officer has said that a colonel attacked her after she discovered a list containing the names of 14 women.
The woman, a former lieutenant known publicly as the ex-PM, says the colonel became violent when she found the list. She has described the incident as an assault.
According to her account, she came across the list by chance. It is not yet clear why the document listed 14 women or what its purpose was.
The colonel, who holds a senior rank within the police force, has denied her claims. He says the allegations are false.
The woman has filed an official complaint, formally reporting the alleged attack to the authorities. This step usually opens a police inquiry into what happened.
No further details have been released about the relationship between the two officers or the exact circumstances of the alleged attack.
The case has drawn public attention, partly because of the ranks of the people involved and the unexplained list of women's names.
Authorities are expected to investigate the claims and the colonel's denial before reaching any conclusion. For now, the facts remain limited to what the ex-PM has reported.
