BERLIN – Five German men have been arrested on charges of sexually assaulting a German woman in Mallorca, local police said on Friday.
The woman was assaulted on Wednesday night and Thursday morning in a hotel room on the popular stretch known as the Ballermann, police said.
The 20-year-old woman had met one of the men, who was about the same age, while partying, Spanish newspaper Ultima Hora reported, citing judicial circles.
At first she joined him voluntarily in his hotel room until she felt uncomfortable because four of his friends were in the room as well and were intoxicated. The woman wanted to leave but the men prevented her from doing so.
Allegedly some of the men proceeded to rape her, while others stood back and watched, the newspaper reported.
Later the woman managed to escape and the hotel reception alerted the police who arrested the men at around 3:40 am (0140 GMT).
Police are still searching for a sixth suspect, Ultima Hora reported, citing judicial circles.
