As is often the case, the more detail that dribbles out, the more curious allegations like this appear.

Let's assume the alleged rape took place in the early morning of 31 December, not unreasonable given that they waited 5 days before going to the Phuket Hospital and this was recorded as 5 January. Yet there was no examination for rape. That waited till they had arrived back in Ireland. Since they departed on the 7th it is reasonable to assume that that examination could not have taken place prior to the 8th. Given that the raped individual is described as the "wife", presumably he was exclusively or mostly the passive partner. Even if submitted to rough penetration without gel, surely it is reasonable to query how a doctor could tell this was a rape rather than regular if somewhat aggressive love making between the two. One can only assume that a rapist had left traces of semen detected through DNA tests (you learn a lot watching CSI!!). Yet given the body's natural functions, would there in fact be any traces left after more than a week?

And since this took place in a hotel, how is it that at least the robbery was not reported? Security cameras or night staff might have been able to verify that 4 or more guys would have entered and just 2 or more left. The Blue Sky is far from a cheap dive and gets good reviews on the hotel booking sites. Unless the hotel staff are lying, you'd assume someone must have noticed something! Very curious!
