A police constable has denied two charges of perverting the course of justice.
PC Nadia Thurley, who serves with Hampshire Constabulary, appeared at Bristol Crown Court to face two counts of committing an act with intent to pervert the course of justice.
The 28-year-old of Kingfield Green, Woking, Surrey, is accused of falsely alleging that Dan Jones assaulted her on July 5 and July 25 in 2021.
Thurley, appearing via video link, spoke only to confirm her name and to reply “not guilty” when the two charges were put to her.

The judge released Thurley on unconditional bail.

A spokesman for Hampshire Police previously confirmed that Thurley was suspended from duty.
Thurley will next appear before Bristol Crown Court on October 6.
