A WOMAN who allegedly falsely claimed she was raped at a Hampshire beauty spot has appeared in court for the first time.
Gemma Mann is charged with perverting the course of justice in relation to an alleged incident at Royal Victoria Country Park in Netley on November 14, which sparked a largescale police investigation.
Yesterday, the 24-year-old, of St Clements Way, Bishopdown, Salisbury, attended a preliminary hearing at Southampton Magistrates’ Court.
No plea was entered and Mann was released on unconditional bail until December 3, when she is due to appear at Southampton Crown Court.

Not quite true - she claimed her sister had been raped.
Of course there's a slight problem with such a claim as she doesn't' actually have a sister:

Truth IS stranger than fiction!

LOL!
I wonder if a man has ever been imprisoned for raping a woman who does not exist?
Anonymous - "Not quite true - she claimed her sister had been raped."
Nice "catch"! Seems we cannot always rely on the press to even get the basic facts straight.
As is so often the case, no mention of any possible reason for the FRA. Only things I can figure is that it was meant for revenge against the shop, or just for the victims assistance money (which I can only imagine would have been difficult for her imaginary sister to pick up).
