THE 18-year-old Australian woman who accused a British man of raping her in Bali has retracted her allegations.

In revoking her police report, the woman said that she did not want to be troubled by the case as she hoped to pursue her university studies in the US.

Detectives, who were still awaiting the woman’s forensic exam results, say both parties have agreed to end the case.

The 25-year-old man had earlier denied raping the woman when questioned by police, claiming the pair had consensual sex.

This contradicted 18-year-old’s report that she was raped after they met at popular nightclub Sky Garden on Thursday night. Both were drunk at the time, police said.

It is understood the NSW-born woman was in Bali for schoolie celebrations.

Police said they were still gathering evidence from the woman’s Kuta hotel room and were questioning the man.

Denying the allegations, the man said the woman became irate after they had sexual intercourse and declared she didn’t like it. He then left.

The 25-year-old did not yet have a lawyer and was not been declared a suspect.

“We’re still developing the evidence and facts,” Denpasar Chief Detective Reinhard Habonaran Nainggolan told reporters, adding the man could be held for 24 hours.
