French tourists ‘gang raped British teen in Magaluf hotel and filmed it on their phones’

A group of French tourists have been arrested in Magaluf after a British teenager alleged she was raped.

The French and Swiss nationals were arrested last Monday, reported Spanish publication, Ultima Hora.

Citing sources at the Calvià Civil Guard, the paper reported that an eighteen-year-old woman met the tourists at a party where they took her back to their hotel.

They are then alleged to have raped her, filming the attack on their phones.

The woman later escaped onto the street where a security guard saw her crying and phoned the police. A medical examiner is said to have found grip marks on the woman’s arms.

The alleged victim described the suspects to officers and six men were arrested. All those arrested are aged in their twenties.

Photographs of the alleged suspects showed one man holding his head down as he was led into court in the Mallorcan capital of Palma for a court hearing this week.

Magaluf, a large holiday resort on the Spanish island of Majorca, is popular with British tourists.
