ONE
of the alleged sex attack victims claims she was held
down by two Leicester City players while a third raped
her.
The
young tourist made the allegation after two separate
identifications, a Spanish police source said.
He
said the three girls were separated and shown the passport
photographs of the nine Premiership stars originally
held.
The holidaymakers were then asked to explain how each
player behaved on Sunday night.
The
police source said: “Prosecutors were satisfied
that the girls were able to give uncollaborated accounts
of the alleged attack.
“They
were shown the players’ passport photographs on
Thursday afternoon following a request from the judge.”
Yesterday morning the girls underwent a similar process,
the source revealed, but this time the players were
lined up in an ID parade.
The
Sun told yesterday how a British family claimed they
heard girls screaming in the alleged incident at 3.30am
on Monday.
Last
night another guest branded the Leicester players a
mob of leering, abusive drunks.
The 35-year-old businessman said players glugged dozens
of bottles of £220-a-time Cristal champagne in
the bar.
He
heard them yell at women drinkers “get your kit
off” and “you know you want it”.
The
guest said he saw defender Frank Sinclair reach over
and grope one woman’s bottom.
Other
boozy players waved wads of cash and shouted abuse at
the three women at the centre of the sex allegations.
Leicester
spokesman Paul Mace claims other guests at La Manga
in Spain believed the players behaved “impeccably”.
But
the London-based businessman said they were “out
of control”.
He was drinking with pals in the piano bar of the Hyatt
Regency Hotel when the players descended.
He
said: “About 13 of them started congregating in
the bar about 9pm.
“They
were loud and raucous and straight away started upsetting
other guests.”
He
said he then saw Sinclair lean over his chair and grope
a female guest. The businessman added: “He pawed
her bottom and made some comment to her. I heard her
say, ‘What do you think you are doing? F*** off
and leave me alone, you b*****d.’ Her partner was
furious. He tried to talk to the player, but he got
shouted down by the others. The couple left.”
He
said the stars then turned their drunken attentions
on the three women who have since made the assault allegations.
He
said: “At first they seemed happy to talk to the
players. They were having loads of drinks bought for
them.
“The
women and the footballers were drinking Cristal champagne,
shots and cocktails. The more the footballers drank
the worse they behaved.”
The
businessman said the worst offenders were Sinclair,
Paul Dickov, Nikos Dabizas, Lilian Nalis, James Scowcroft
and Matt Elliott.
He
added: “It was a disgrace. I felt ashamed a British
team could behave in such a manner.” He said the
players were still boozing when he left the bar at 1am.
