Brit, 32, arrested for ‘having sex with underage girl after luring her into Ibiza club VIP area’ as her MUM calls police
POLICE in Ibiza have arrested a 32-year-old British man for allegedly having sex with a minor at a hotel on the island.
Officers allege that the British man approached the under-age girl, who is less than 16, after inviting her to a VIP area of an unnamed nightclub.
The girl’s mother alerted police after discovering she hadn’t returned home from a night out with friends and finding out what had happened.
The Brit, who has not been identified, is thought to have already appeared before a judge.
It wasn’t immediately clear this morning what the outcome of his court appearance was.
A spokesman for the National Police in Ibiza said: “National Police officers in Ibiza have arrested a 32-year-old British man on suspicion of a sex crime.
“The arrest happened on Sunday morning at a hotel in Ibiza Town.
“Officers responded to an emergency call and went to the hotel and on arrival spoke to the mother of a minor who told them that when she woke up, she realised her daughter who had gone out the previous night with friends of her own age wasn’t in her room.
“The complainants, the under-age girl’s legal guardians, had been able to track her down as well as the man she was with inside a hotel room.
“What officers have established is that the minor, who is under 16, was in a nightclub where she met an adult male who invited her to a VIP area where she drank alcohol with him.
“They subsequently went to a hotel room where they had sex.
“The age of consent in Spain is 16 and any sexual relationship with a person below that age is punishable by law.
“After he was arrested and processed by police, the British man was handed over to the courts.”
