Water leaking into boot

Water has begun leaking into my boot. It is coming from the boot lock (which is on the boot door) and it then pools next to the catch for the lock before running off into the boot proper. The drainage hole on the boot door is clear but I don't know why the water is not running out of the drain or why it has started to endter the boot through the locking mechanism.
Thanks,
Dave

there may be a seal at the lock mechanism that is leaking. check drain to seeif hole is clear so it will drain out. also check trunk seal(boot) to see if it has twisted off or has come loose at some point.
