Petition Action

Prosecute malicious false rape claims.

Petition Details

I've seen too many examples of aggressive prosecuting by the CPS & Police encouraged by Alison Saunders, of the CPS. I've also seen on multiple occasions a person making multiple rape or sexaul assault claims where it has been show that the malicious claims have been found to be without foundation.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not sure exactly what you would like the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Someone who makes a false allegation of a crime may be prosecuted for perverting the course of justice or wasting police time.

It is not therefore clear what further action you would Government or Parliament to take.

You may find this guidance from the Crown Prosecution Service helpful:

If you believe that someone has committed a crime, you should contact the police. You can find out more about how to do that here:
