The victim will not be named due to automatic anonymity given to her by the justice system.
As previously reported, the woman was over the age of 16 at the time of the offence, however the initial hearing at Swindon Magistrates Court on April 30, 2025, was heard before the youth panel.
A trial date had initially been set for May 18 of this year, but a new date has been set for Monday, April 12, 2027 at Swindon Crown Court.
