Ms Martin continued: “[The victim] said no and Fiona just carried on anyway.” Most read in The Sun She allegedly felt like “she could not turn to anyone” after the incident because Anderson was a police officer, it was said. She told police in a video interview that she “struggled to understand” and “get past” what happened to her.

The trial, listed for four days, continues.
