Stupid girl....
The Israeli families will sue, for sure.
Hopefully the Cyprus court will also deal with her correctly too!

[Lucky Lady]

What a silly girl. This really is not helpful for those people who are unfortunate enough to really experience rape. I hope she is named and shamed, given a suitable punishment, sent back to the UK and barred from Cyprus. The boys in question can now resume their lives, but I'm sure they will never return, and may well sue her.

Who will they sue?

Best to wait until all the facts are known.

Can you tell us what you mean by money talks?

This is what one of the defence lawyers said,

Lawyer Nir Yaslovitzh. Who represents two of the accused, said:

'Cypriot police carried out a professional and thorough investigation.'

Why let the complete absence of any facts get in the way of a good yarn eh?

If what is now being said is true (and we won't know until the court case) then she is not the first to make such a claim whilst on holiday. A number of girls have made such claims in order to get compensation from the holiday company.

Whatever the outcome, a great disservice has been done to all those women who have been raped, and will be raped in the future.

I'm with you on this one. Let's just wait and see.

British woman arrested for suspicion of false accusations of gang rape; seven Israeli teens go home

The British woman, 19, who claimed that 12 Israeli teens gang-raped her in her hotel room at an Ayia Napa resort in Cyprus has been arrested by police, according to reports that surfaced on Sunday.

Reuters reports that the seven Israelis detained were released from custody, while the BBC reported that the woman was arrested on suspicion of making false allegations.

Defence attorney Nir Jeslovich, who represented several of the Israeli suspects in court, stated that the men went on a “vacation that became a nightmare” after police in Cyprus arrested 12 teens, aged from 15-18 years, on 18 July following the woman’s allegations. “As I have argued throughout the process, there was no rape in Cyprus,” he told Jerusalem Post.

Greek defence lawyer Yiannis Habaris told Associated Press that the five Israeli teenagers that had already been released had found to have no connection with the case. The seven were linked to the case through witness statements though DNA evidence only linked three of the seven to the alleged victim.

Israeli TV Channel 12 reported that the girlfriend of one of the Israeli teen suspects took a selfie of him sleeping next to her at the time of the alleged incident. “My girlfriend’s selfie saved my life,” he said. “I will never come back here ever again.”

A Cyprus police official told The Associated Press that the woman voluntarily recanted during questioning after midnight on Sunday, saying there had been consensual sexual contact and that she had not been raped. State-run Cyprus News Agency reported that the woman allegedly told investigators she had been “angry and insulted” after a number of the teenagers allegedly recorded the video of her having sex, causing her to go to the police.

What is the point in suing a 19 year old who probably has very little assets?

No one comes out of this smelling of rose's, the lads should hang their heads in shame for standing around and filming, what was going on, not good.

If teenagers were not so openly promiscuous things like this would probably never happen!

So more mature people are never promiscuous then?

And what is wrong with been promiscuous at any age?

If you need to ask it doesn't say much for your moral standards in my opinion!

Austin what are morals and whom decides on them?

Some of the OAPs of today grew up in the 60s. I don't think they are in any position to lecture the youth of today on how to act.

On the whole, the youth of today are far more sensible than previous generations.
