A TEENAGER arrested in connection with the rape of a woman at a Basildon nightspot, had his bail extended by police.

The 19-year-old, from Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, was arrested during the summer after an alleged sex attack at the Liquid nightclub, on the Festival Leisure Park.

An 18-year-old girl, from Romford, complained of being sexually assaulted near the DJ stand at the nightclub between 1am and 2.30am on Sunday, June 30. The Hertfordshire teenager was arrested and released on police bail while detectives continued to investigate.

He answered bail and was given a new date to report back.
