ARCHIVED - British tourist sexually assaulted by tattoo artist while holidaying in Spain
Spanish Police are investigating a string of similar attacks on the party island of Ibiza

Police in the town of Sant Josep de sa Talaia in southwest Ibiza have arrested a 47-year-old man for allegedly sexually assaulting a British tourist while he was tattooing her.
According to official sources, the victim reported the abuse to the authorities in Scotland, where she lives, while still on holiday and they passed the information on to officers in Ibiza. The tattoo artist was arrested when local cops realised he had been previously accused of a string of similar offences.
A Police spokesperson said: “The Guardia Civil through its Unit of Investigation of Sex Crimes in Ibiza, has arrested a man aged 47 on suspicion of sexual assault.
“The arrest took place on August 11. The victim, a British woman who was on holiday in Ibiza, reported the incident to police in Scotland where she lives normally who passed her information on to the Guardia Civil.
“Investigators discovered the arrested man had previous for incidents of a similar nature and allegedly committed the sexual crimes in a tattoo parlour in San Josep de Sa Talaia, where the alleged victims hired his services.
“He allegedly molested the women by touching them without their permission while he was doing their tattoo.
“Ibiza Court of Instruction Number One has remanded him in prison.”
Neither the detained tattoo artist nor the shop where he worked have yet been named.
Earlier this month, a 35-year-old Nottingham man died after being badly beaten by bouncers in the party hotspot of Magaluf in Mallorca. The father-of-two was reportedly holidaying in Spain with his girlfriend when he was punched and “knelt on” before suffering a cardiac arrest and dying five days later at a hospital in Palma.
