Cyprus court rules ‘gang rape’ Briton guilty of lying
A British woman was on Monday found guilty of lying about being gang-raped in Ayia Napa, Cyprus, by Israeli youths six months ago.
The woman was arrested after withdrawing an allegation that she was attacked by 12 young Israelis in a hotel in July.
The woman had accused Cypriot police making her to falsely confess to lying about the incident but the police denied the claim.
She was found guilty of causing public mischief, at a court in Paralimni.
The judge at the Famagusta district court adjourned sentencing until January the 7th.
She could face up to a year in jail, but her lawyers have asked for a suspended sentence.
