At 8am yesterday the Basque emergency services were alerted about a British woman aged between 20 and 25 who had been sexually attacked by a subject in a parking area next to the beaches at Larrabasterra, in Sopela, who then abandoned the scene.
The youngster, who was in Spain working as an au pair, tried to contact a friend on her phone without success. Some passers by saw her in distress, and having problems understanding her language decided to call the emergency services. She was admitted to the hospital in Cruces.
According to a worker who was cleaning a well known bar at the scene, two Arab men arrived at the bar and asked to ring the emergency services given the state of the youngster ‘who was holding a bottle in her hand’ according to the witnesses.
The Basque Security Department explained the victim had not placed a formal complaint, but they had nevertheless opened an investigation into a possible crime of sexual violence.
