DC Arwel Hughes said: “Our investigation is very much still ongoing, and we are particularly keen to speak to a group of students who were on Glanrafon Hill at the time. They would have seen or heard something and we urge them to come forward and assist with our investigation.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

“We are also appealing to anyone else who was in the area at the time or who knows anything about the assault to contact Police and help us piece together exactly what took place.” ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
