A Morrison government minister has been accused of rape in a letter sent to the Prime Minister | The New Daily

A rape allegation against one of Scott Morrison’s own Cabinet Ministers has been referred to federal police after a letter was sent to the Prime Minister detailing the allegations.

The alleged sexual assault dates to 1988, before the unnamed senior minister entered politics.

The victim, who was 16 at the time of the alleged crime, took her own life last year.

The letter came with a detailed statement prepared by the complainant for her lawyer and was shared with the ABC’s Four Corners program by a friend of the alleged victim.

Ms Hanson-Young said the information she had received regarded a “disturbing and a very serious allegation of a criminal nature against a senior member of the government”.

Senator Wong said it was her understanding the complainant, who was 16 at the time of the alleged attack in Sydney, reported the assault to NSW Police and South Australia Police.
