Greek police have arrested an 18-year-old American woman in Thessaloniki following accusations of attempted rape by a 19-year-old Greek man.
The alleged victim reported the incident to the Pylea Police station, claiming the woman had made unwanted sexual advances toward him while he was intoxicated. He stated that the incident occurred at an abandoned house in the Panorama suburb.
The police acted on the complaint, locating and arresting the American woman in Thessaloniki. She is currently in custody while the investigation continues.
This case highlights the issue of sexual assault perpetrated by women, a topic often overshadowed by the more commonly discussed male-on-female violence. It also underscores the importance of consent, regardless of gender, and the serious consequences of violating it.
