Detectives want to speak to anyone who was at Slug & Lettuce in Watford on an evening earlier this year after an allegation of rape.

Herts Police have also released a CCTV image of a man they believe may have information that could assist the ongoing investigation.

Anyone who knows the man pictured, or who was either inside the Slug and Lettuce in The Parade - or in the area - during the evening of Saturday February 10, has been asked to contact police.
