Jane* served in the British Army for almost 20 years. It was a career she loved and excelled in, rising through the ranks. But then, she says, it ended when a colleague raped her.

She breaks down as she recalls the night out, almost 6 years ago.

Jane reported the attack to the Royal Military Police but days later was called into a meeting with officers in her chain of command and accused of flirting with men and drinking too much. Later, she discovered messages they had exchanged calling her a whore.

The military police investigated, but the case never made it to court martial, where military trials are heard – she was told there was an unrealistic chance of conviction. (Skynews)
