Police are appealing for information after an alleged rape took place at this year's Secret Garden Party.

It is reported that a female festival-goer was raped in a tent in the camp site in the early hours of Friday morning (24 July).

A Cambridge Police spokesman said:"Police are urging people at the Secret Garden Party to be extra vigilant following reports that a woman was raped in the early hours of yesterday morning.

"The incident happened in one of the tented areas of the site in Mill Hill Field, Abbotts Ripton. The victim is from outside Cambridgeshire."

They continued: "Officers are urging people not to take substances and remain extra vigilant."

Secret Garden Party said in a statement: "A woman has alleged that she was raped in the early hours of Friday, July 24 in one of the tented areas of the Secret Garden Party site.

"Police have appealed for any witnesses who might have seen or heard anything suspicious in the early hours of Friday morning to contact a police officer on-site, visit the welfare tent, call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

Secret Garden Party takes place in Huntingdon, and this year features performances from Say Lou Lou, Public Service Broadcasting, Cat Empire, Jungle, Kate Tempest, Ibeyi and many more.
