Brit ‘sexually assaulted' by Magaluf cab driver who abandoned her at airport & told her ‘this is how it's done in Spain'
The driver is thought to have asked the Brit woman to move to the front passenger seat before allegedly touching her inappropriately CAB 'FROM HELL' Brit 'sexually assaulted' by Magaluf cab driver who abandoned her at airport & told her 'this is how it's done in Spain' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A BRIT tourist was allegedly sexually assaulted by a cabbie in Magaluf who is said to have abandoned her at the airport. Spanish prosecutors allege the taxi driver, 28, "took advantage" of the British tourist, 33, who was reportedly drunk - before telling her "this is how it's done in Spain".

One pal of the Brit tourists said they called for a taxi to get her back to the hotel because she had been drinking heavily in Punta Ballena, a party strip in the holiday hotspot. But the 'rogue driver' allegedly switched routes and took her to Palma airport instead after telling her to pay £42 upfront. He is then thought to have asked the Brit woman to move to the front passenger seat before allegedly touching her inappropriately. The alleged case, which reportedly took place in 2023, is now set to go to court. It is understood that public prosecutors will also demand £6,000 in compensation if Mr Singh is found guilty. A three-page pre-trial indictment submitted by public prosecutors states 'The friend told the accused where he should take her. 'A few metres into the journey, the accused stopped the vehicle and told the British woman she should pay EUROS 50 for the fare upfront and move from the back to sit beside him in the passenger seat. 'She followed his instructions, paying with a card. 'Following on from that, the accused, taking advantage of an inebriated woman who was alone in a place she didn't know, changed the agreed route and took the motorway towards the airport. 'On the way, with lascivious and lustful intent, he touched her breasts and her groin over her clothes and tried to kiss her. 'When they reached the airport, he told her to get out and said, 'This is how things are done in Spain so get used to it.'" Public prosecutors say the Brit woman has needed counselling for 'severe anxiety and depression' after going through the alleged incident. The indictment added: 'The main problem is the traumatic flashbacks.' It is not yet clear how the accused cabbie will plead when the case gets to court. A date for the trial has yet to be set. It comes after two Brits were arrested last month on suspicion of raping a teen tourist from the UK at their rented Costa del Sol villa. The 19-year-old's friends found her unconscious in a bathroom at the property in Marbella. More to follow...

EXCLUSIVE Why a DPD driver was REALLY hacked to death with a machete: Inside Sikh gang war fuelled by immigration that BBC didn't show in documentary
Hacked to death by an axe and club-wielding gang in a 'cartel-style' execution, it is hard to conceive a more brutal death than the one inflicted upon DPD driver Aurman Singh. Yet could the horrific murder, which also saw the 23-year-old battered with a hockey stick, golf club and shovel as he made his deliveries, have stemmed from a mere slap during a row about money?
