A group of five French tourists and one Swiss tourist have been arrested after a British teenager was allegedly gang-raped in the holiday resort of Magaluf.

A judge in capital Palma found there were video clips of the alleged rape on at least one of the suspects’ phones, police said. 

She met the suspected rapists on Monday night and later went to the hotel room of one of the suspects, where she was allegedly sexually assaulted by the six, the police press office in Mallorca cited the alleged victim’s statement as saying. 

The Civil Guard showed up at the hotel after receiving a phone call from the hotel’s security staff who found the young woman crying in desperation. 

Police detained the suspects, all of whom are over 20, shortly after.

The alleged victim received immediate medical attention and counselling.

In the first pictures of the six men, one of the suspects held his head down and stared at the ground as he was led into a court in Palma in handcuffs by a Civil Guard officer. 

But the other five, all wearing the same shorts and t-shirt they were arrested in, made no attempt to disguise their faces as they were taken into court for a remand hearing held behind closed doors. 

All the suspects were escorted into the court building in Palma in handcuffs. 

Although the suspects are being held in jail, none of them has been formally charged as yet, as the investigation is ongoing. There were no details released on their identities nor that of the alleged victim. 

Detectives inspected the room where the alleged assault occurred and reviewed CCTV footage of the hotel entrance as part of the ongoing investigation.

A medic checked the woman over and is said to have found grip marks on her arms.

Earlier this month, a 21-year-old British woman told Greek police that she was raped by an Israeli man after meeting him in a nightclub in Athens. 

The young tourist was allegedly attacked at the man’s home in the early hours the previous week after a night out in the Keramikos area. 

She told police that during the sexual assault, the man’s three friends appeared out of nowhere and filmed her with their mobile phones. 

The woman, who had been partying with her friend from Portugal beforehand, told the group she was leaving but the man refused to stop the act, according to local media. 

After a struggle the woman managed to escape the property and told police of the incident.

A case has been filed against the Israeli man for rape. 

Just last month another British tourist accused a 47-year-old Greek man of raping her in a hotel while on holiday on the island of Rhodes, according to local media.

The 21-year-old said she was attacked at around 2am on July 3 in Pefkos and made a complaint to the local police hours later, prompting a case to be opened.

According to Greece‘s ANT1News, the young woman’s lawsuit claims the older man took her from a ‘health care store’ in Lindos, found on the south of the island, to a hotel in Pefkos – the main city on the island that sits around 15 miles from Turkey.

There, the outlet reports, the woman claims the man forced her to have sex with him through threats of physical violence.

Upon making her complaint, the police asked a medical examiner to carry out an assessment, ANT1News said.

She handed over the clothes she was wearing on the night which were reportedly sent to Greece’s Directorate of Criminal Investigations for DNA testing.

According to the same publication, a second British woman made a complaint over an incident in Faliraki – seven miles south of Pefkos – 24 hours earlier.

It reports that the 18-year-old British tourist was attacked in the early hours on Sunday, July 2, at a nightclub in the popular destination.

She has told police she was at the club with two of her friends, when she suspects an unknown person injected her with a narcotic substance in her hand – without her realising that it had happened at the time.

From that moment, she says she suffered from complete memory loss, leading her to suspect that she was secretly injected with some form of drug.

As with the first case, a coroner’s examination has been ordered and police have launched an investigation into the alleged attack.

In yet another grim case, a 21-year-old British tourist was allegedly raped after she was dragged into bushes on a popular Algarve holiday beach last month. 

The woman told police the sex attack took place on the sand by a walkway at Praia da Rocha beach in the municipality of Portimao.

And last month, two Irishmen were arrested on suspicion of raping a British tourist in a hotel in Magaluf. 

The Briton, who has not been named, told police she had been sexually assaulted by the two men in a hotel room in Calvia by Magaluf in the early hours of July 19. 

The Irishmen had reportedly fled the hotel before they were arrested by police officers at the airport as they tried to return to Dublin.

Police had arrived at the hotel on July 19 where the woman claimed she had been raped by the two tourists.

The alleged victim was taken by officers to Son Espases Hospital by the policeman where she underwent an examination of her injuries. The Guardia Civil confirmed that the woman had been raped.

It came days after a British tourist was arrested at the Palma Mallorca airport after allegedly raping his girlfriend at their hotel on the Spanish island.

The 38-year-old was held as he tried to fly home after his 24-year-old partner went to police to say he had forced himself on her in the bathroom of their hotel room.

The couple are said to have been staying at a three-star hotel near the resort of Magaluf when the incident allegedly occurred. 

Meanwhile in May, a British tourist was arrested on suspicion of raping a female friend of his son’s at a hotel in Magaluf. 

The holidaymaker was also held at Palma Airport after allegedly packing his bags and trying to leave the island in a hurry hours later. 

The woman, also believed to be British, told detectives she was raped after falling asleep in her friend’s room, which had an internal door leading into his dad’s room. 

The older man is said to have surprised her in the middle of the night after entering the room while his son was out partying. 

The alleged rape victim, who is understood to be aged around 20, fled the unnamed hotel and raised the alarm at a Civil Guard office near to the Punta Ballena party strip in Magaluf according to local reports.
