Sydney student rape allegation: Video may ‘still be circulating’, private school fears

Students at a private school in Sydney’s eastern suburbs are ordered to delete and report a video of the alleged rape of a 15-year-old girl if they encounter it.

A 15-year-old boy from the exclusive Cranbrook School has been charged with the aggravated sexual assault of the girl.

The incident allegedly occurred at a home in Bellevue Hill earlier in March.

Another 15-year-old boy, who attended Rose Bay Secondary College, has been charged with filming the assault and sharing the video on social media.

Waverley College, which is not linked to the incident, has warned its students they must report the video if they see it online.

The Acting Head of College, Graham Leddie, sent a letter to every boy in years 7 to 12 to ensure they “understand the right and wrong” surrounding the issue.

“There are rumors (sic) that video footage of this incident is continuing to circulate through schools in the eastern suburbs,” Mr Leddie wrote.

“This is appalling, upsetting and simply wrong if true.
