Eight ‘gang rapists who attacked Brit teen in Magaluf hotel after night out’ face 150 YEARS in jail

EIGHT men accused of raping a British teenager in Magaluf face 150 years behind bars if convicted of the horror assault.

A young woman, aged 18, was staying at the BH Mallorca Resort when she was repeatedly raped in August last year.

Spanish public prosecutors announced in an indictment made public on Wednesday that they are seeking individual jail sentences of between 18 and 20 years for each of the men.

If convicted, this sentencing would total 151 years in jail.

Reports at the time of the attack said three of the suspects met the teenager hours earlier while partying in Magaluf.

One of these men had allegedly entered a hotel corridor after “𝓈ℯ𝓍ually attacking“ the teenager to urge strangers coming back from nights out to have “free 𝓈ℯ𝓍“ with the alleged victim.

At least five of the suspects took turns raping the woman while the other three 𝓈ℯ𝓍ually assaulted her, an investigating judge concluded following an investigation, Majorcan newspaper Diario de Mallorca reported.

All of the men, seven French nationals and one Swiss national, were arrested last year and are due to remain behind bars until their trial – expected to take place next year.

Two of the suspects, charged earlier this year following a lengthy investigation, were held abroad on a European Arrest Warrant and extradited.

Six were detained in Majorca.

The eight men were aged between 18 and 26 when they were arrested.

Wednesday’s 14-page indictment revealed more harrowing details about the sickening crimes the men are accused of carrying out.

The document laying out the prosecution’s case supports initial reports of the incident, pointing to the alleged humiliating treatment of the Brit.

It claims that six of the suspects went to a room where one of them was staying and met another two men and a roommate who were already inside with the teenager.

The prosecution says: “There, the accused men, during approximately half an hour, aware of the semi-conscious state the young woman was in and at one point seeing she had fallen in a state of unconsciousness and taking advantage of the closed room she had been taken into, ᵴtriƥped her nɑƙeɗ leaving her with only her bra on.

“They then carried out different 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual acts on her, acting by common consent and without her consent.”

A spokesman for the hotel said in a statement at the time of the alleged incident:

“The BH Mallorca Resort deeply regrets what has happened and would like to manifest its firm and forceful repudiation of the alleged 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual attack that occurred in the early hours of Monday, August 14 at the hotel.

“The hotel also wants to demonstrate its solidarity with the alleged victim of this aggression.

“We are cooperating fully with the Civil Guard and its investigators in everything they consider to be necessary.

“This hotel ratifies through this statement its commitment to the condemnation of all types of 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual attacks that affect peoples’ dignity and physical integrity.

“Behaviour that undermines those rights has no place in this establishment.”

It claims they allegedly spat on her and insulted her.

One of the men is claimed to have said: “Today we’re going to have a good time.“

There were also reports by the prosecution that the men filmed her during the alleged assaults.

Two of the men have been accused of sending the recordings from their phones and sharing them on Snapchat in boasts about their actions while their alleged victim was still “semi-unconscious or unconscious.”

One of the suspects stands accused of filming 14 videos lasting 170 seconds, and another of filming five videos lasting 142 seconds.

After the alleged violence, a security guard at the hotel found the British teenager sobbing on the floor in the lobby.

He had just come in for his morning shift and described the police response at the time as very quick and efficient.

During a medical examination after the alleged incident, bruises were found on her arms which were believed to have been caused by her alleged rapists holding her down.

She also suffered a cut to her chest.

The charges the men face include five counts of rape involving two or more men simultaneously and “particularly degrading and humiliating intimidation and violence.”

There are also charges of 𝓈ℯ𝓍ual assault without penetration, mistreatment, and privacy crimes relating to the publication of mobile phone videos.

The men have been identified by the prosecution as primary perpetrators of rape or accomplices who knowingly, voluntarily and with common intent united in the commission of the crimes.

The prison sentences public prosecutors are demanding on conviction range from four to 15 years for the most serious of the crimes.

Prosecutors also want £83,000 given in compensation for their alleged victim if convicted as charged.

A date for the trial has not yet been set, but it is expected to take place next year.

A lawyer acting for the teenager is also due to ‘privately prosecute’ the eight suspects in a case which will run parallel to the state prosecution in the same courtroom in the Majorcan capital Palma.

His indictment has yet to be submitted to the courts.
