Briton raped in Faliraki

A teenager has been raped while on holiday in the Greek resort of Faliraki.

The 19-year-old from Paisley, Scotland, said she was attacked in a hotel room by an Englishman called Dave while another man held her down.

Police said today they have arrested and questioned an Australian man believed to be an accomplice in the attack.

Detectives are still looking for the rapist, believed to have returned to the UK.

The incident has marred this season's tranquillity in the resort on the island of Rhodes. Holiday bookings have dropped by half compared with last year and Greek and British authorities had hoped to establish total order.

Last year crime doubled among British holidaymakers in the resort, with three deaths and 15 reported rapes.
