THE three British tourists arrested over the alleged gang-rape of a UK woman in the party resort of Magaluf have been released on bail following a court appearance.<\/p>\n

The trio were pictured hiding their faces as they were hauled before a judge yesterday in the Majorcan capital Palma following their arrests on Friday.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Late last night it emerged they had been set free pending an ongoing criminal probe.<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear whether any conditions had been attached to their release or if they are free to leave the island.<\/p>\n

Local reports said two of the men were being investigated on suspicion of raping the British woman and the third on suspicion of doing nothing to prevent the sex attack.<\/p>\n

The alleged victim raised the alarm in the early hours of Friday morning claiming she may have been drugged before being raped at a holiday apartment.<\/p>\n

Spanish police confirmed on Friday afternoon they had arrested the men, thought to be in their early twenties, as they tried to board a flight to Manchester to return home.<\/p>\n

\u201cA police patrol went to the hotel and spoke to a young tourist who told them she had been raped in the early hours of this morning<\/span> by men she had met the night before.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe also said she had suffered chemical submission, given that she felt unwell possibly because of the consumption of some type of drug.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe said she didn\u2019t know the identity of the alleged aggressors, just the nickname one of them used on a social network.\u201d<\/p>\n

Explaining she had been taken to\u00a0hospital\u00a0so further tests could take place, the spokesman added: \u201cOfficers identified the alleged aggressors who had just abandoned the hotel with the intention of taking a flight back to their home country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were arrested at Palma Airport minutes before they boarded a flight to Manchester.\u201d<\/p>\n

It comes after the arrest of the eight suspects over the alleged gang-rape of an 18-year-old British teen at the BH Mallorca Resort in Magaluf in the early hours of August 14.<\/p>\n

Six are in custody in Majorca and two are expected to be extradited shortly from\u00a0France.<\/p>\n

Seven of the suspects, aged 18 to 26, are French and the other man is a\u00a0Swiss\u00a0national.<\/p>\n

The BH Mallorca Resort said it was cooperating fully with the authorities and offered its support to the unnamed holidaymaker.<\/p>\n
