A British woman visiting Greece reported being sexually assaulted by a hotel employee on the island of Kos. The incident, involving a 42-year-old male of Nigerian descent, occurred in her hotel room on Monday evening. The woman, aged 45, stated that she had been drinking and the employee took advantage of her intoxicated state.
Local authorities on the popular resort island launched a search for the suspect, who was subsequently apprehended and is currently in custody awaiting a court appearance. This incident follows a series of sexual assault allegations made by tourists in Greece earlier this year.
In a separate incident on the island of Rhodes, a tourist accused her masseuse of assault during a massage session at her hotel in Kremasti. The woman reported feeling uncomfortable and violated, leading to a lawsuit being filed in connection with the alleged assault.
Another incident involved a 16-year-old British girl who claimed to have been raped at sea in front of a crowded beach on Rhodes. The girl, vacationing with her family, reported the incident to the authorities with her father. A 15-year-old boy from Belgium was arrested in relation to the incident, with the suspect claiming the interaction was consensual.
The suspect has appeared before the Public Prosecutor on the island for further legal proceedings following the incident. These cases highlight a concerning trend of alleged sexual assaults targeting tourists in Greece.
