Free Zone employee says driver raped her

Meanwhile a bus driver from Orange Walk has been arrested and charged with the rape of a teenager. 31 year old Javier Villanueva was charged with rape yesterday after a 19-year-old female worker of the Free Zone reported to police that late Saturday night, Villanueva raped her. According to the young woman, just before 1:00 on Sunday morning, Villanueva was taking home the Free Zone workers and she ended up being last in the vehicle. But instead of taking her to her house, she alleges Villanueva took her to a secluded spot and raped her. Then he took her home. Villanueva was picked up by police the following day. He has since been denied bail and remanded to the Hattieville Correctional Facility.
