A 28-year-old man has been found not guilty of the rape and sexual assault of a woman, the court has confirmed.

Errol Robinson, of Sutton, Surrey, was accused of the rape and assault by penetration of the woman at her flat in Fleet, Hampshire, on July 17, 2018.

But a jury cleared Mr Robinson of both charges at Winchester Crown Court following one of the first trials to be started in the country following the Covid-19 lockdown.

The defendant had denied having sexual intercourse with the complainant and had denied both charges.
