And as recently as August, a similar incident occurred in Greece, when a 24-year-old British woman was raped. The 26-year-old offender was arrested in the Akti Fontsa region in the west of the country. The woman alleged that she was forced to engage in sexual acts near a bar in Belarus, and the perpetrator was charged with rape.
And in July, another similar incident occurred in which a British tourist was allegedly raped by a wealthy American vacationer on the popular Greek holiday island of Mykonos. The identity of the woman has not been revealed for legal reasons but she lived in Preston, Lancashire. She told the cops that the man was 30 and told her he usually lived in an upscale New York suburb. The victim told police the couple met at a store on the island before he took her to the hotel toilet where she was staying and raped her. In June, another British woman was attacked while vacationing in Crete and police accused the rapist of allowing the rapist to “roam free” after they wrongly accused her father of the attack.
