The unnamed 27-year-old, thought to have travelled to the island to take part in a rugby tournament with pals, was detained yesterday at the airport shortly before he flew back to Britain.
The alleged sex attack is said to have happened around 5am on MondayA serving RAF serviceman has been arrested in Majorca after a British holidaymaker accused him of raping her at a four-star Magaluf hotel.
The alleged sex attack is said to have happened around 5am on Monday on a terrace at the hotel, which we are not naming to protect the identity of the 21-year-old woman who reported him. Civil Guard officers are understood to have discovered the identity of the suspect hours after she filed a formal complaint.
The whereabouts of his female accuser was not immediately clear, although she would be expected to appear before the same judge to ratify her earlier police statement.The Civil Guard, which carried out the arrest and held the detained man overnight in police cells, has yet to make any official comment.
Five French nationals and a Swiss man were arrested and remanded in jail pending an ongoing judicial investigation and a further two suspects subsequently held in France on European Arrest Warrants. The criminal probe is still ongoing.
