He wasnt acquitted, the police and Procurator Fiscal didnt proceed with the charge due to lack of evidence.
The victim asked to withdraw her original statement, the PF refused to accept that as they can, she then changed her statement.
The PF decided not to prosecute because the chances of the prosecution being successful was greatly reduced.
However the girls family accused those involved of trying to buy her off, when that failed of successfully intimidating her into changing her statement.
He never appeared in a court, he couldnt have been acquitted!!!
As I said he can sue me.
