Police investigate P&O sexual assault allegations

Police have been asked to investigate an alleged sexual assault on board a P&O Cruise ship which docked in Brisbane on Saturday morning.

The P&O liner Pacific Sun docked in Brisbane after a seven day cruise.

Police say they are investigating allegations of a sexual assault when the ship was off Noumea earlier this week.

Officers boarded the Pacific Sun and spoke with people allegedly involved in the incident.

A P&O spokeswoman says staff on board the liner reported the allegation as soon as it was made.

In 2002 Brisbane woman Dianne Brimble died on board the P&O liner Pacific Sky.

Passenger Mark Wilhelm is standing trial for manslaughter and supplying Ms Brimble with a prohibited drug.

Wilhelm has pleaded not guilty.
