"The woman claims that after her traumatic experience, the university's response was inadequate, failing to provide necessary support for her academic progression."
"Following the incident, she became a victim of image-based abuse, with a sexually explicit photo circulated among peers, exacerbating her distress."
A female medical student at University College Dublin is appealing a High Court ruling that dismissed her lawsuit against the university. She alleges that UCD did not provide sufficient accommodations for her to re-sit exams and continue her studies following her rape. Additionally, she experienced image-based abuse when a sexually explicit photo of her was sent anonymously to staff and students through email and WhatsApp, accompanied by derogatory comments.
