The girl who suffered in Egypt did not provoke a rapist, eyewitnesses say

The girl who was attacked in the hotel in the Egyptian Hurghada did not drink alcohol; She saw her rapist earlier in the hotel, but was not familiar with him, RIA Novosti told a Russian tourist on Sunday, one of the first to help the victim.

The attack on the Russian tourist was committed on the night of August 26. The main suspect in the attack is one of the hotel employees.

According to investigators, the attacker entered the number of a 22-year-old tourist late in the evening and attacked her. The man tried to stun the girl, but she resisted him. Later, the tourist unconscious with multiple bruises and burns was discovered by her acquaintance.

“A friend and I saw a girl in the hotel lobby just a couple of hours before the tragedy. She said that she would go to her room. And after a while, our acquaintance ran to us and called to her help,” said RIA Novosti's interlocutor.

He turned to the agency after he saw negative comments on the pages of individual media about the injured girl from Russia.

“I want to say that the girl really came to Egypt for the first time. It just so happened that she was there alone, and it was noticeable that she felt not confidently. She behaved modestly and did not try to attract attention. She was just very beautiful. By the way, she doesn’t drink alcohol at all,” the agency’s interlocutor assured.

He pointed out a strange circumstance: a lonely Russian was settled in the most remote part of a large hotel, where many Bungalo were empty.

“Maybe that's why no one has heard her moans and requests for help for a long time. It is happiness that our comrade turned out to be nearby and called us to the aid. Otherwise, who knows how this could end,” the agency’s interlocutor continued.

According to him, the victim saw earlier on the territory of the hotel of a man who then attacked her, but was not familiar with him and never talked.

The alleged criminal has already been detained, it is reported that he has already given a confession. In the event that his guilt is proved, according to Egyptian law, he faces a punishment from five years in prison to the death penalty. The situation is under personal control with the Deputy Minister of Tourism of Egypt.
