Further charges brought against rape accused

Further charges have been brought against a Peel man who's due to stand trial for rape.

46-year-old William Kelly, of Ballawattleworth, appeared at Douglas Courthouse this week. 

He's accused of raping a woman between August 6th and October 27th 2014 - and of indecently assaulting her between the same dates.

It brings the number of rape charges he's facing to 10 and the number of indecent assault charges to four - the charges date between April 2013 and April 2016. 

Committal proceedings are due to take place on February 28th - he's been bailed until that date.
