Ah, just read it.
All looks pretty confidential to me then.
So a report of the rape to the police does count as proof, even if the case is not proved in court, I am pleased about that.
You can also claim rape in a relationship as long as you are prepared for the man not to gain by the tax credit as well. So get rid of the tosser.
All seems reasonable to me.
