AMY Barlow accused Aaron Sandford of raping her during a drunken evening – and retracted her accusation.
However, the truth catches up with the lad next week and a fight erupts in Coronation Street between him and Aadi Alahan.
Amy Barlow was raped during a drunken evening spent with Aaron Sandford, played by James Craven, but she stayed quiet about her ordeal.
After opening up to her mother Tracy Barlow, she was encouraged to report Aaron to the police.
Unfortunately, Amy didn't receive the help she was hoping for and the lad was allowed to roam free in the cobbles despite his actions.
This has convinced Amy to move past the rape, branding it a simple "mistake."

In tears, Amy admits to both Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) and Aadi that she was hoping to block out her memories due to the fact Aaron raped her when she was drunk.
But it's clear to her that boozing her sorrow away won't work and she stands by her statement once and for all.
The guests eventually leave the party and, while alone with Aaron, Aadi decides to stand up to him, revealing he knows everything.
Aaron reacts by assuring Aadi that Amy is lying and wanted to sleep with him.
When the pair tidy the flat, Aaron downs the remaining beers and passes out drunk on the sofa.
Furious with him, Aadi decides he wants revenge for Amy.
The time eventually comes for Aadi to square up to Aaron and the pair start to have a brutal scrap in the cobbles.
