A British teenager has told police that she was raped on a beach while on holiday in Italy.
The 17-year-old girl, who has not been named, said she was asked by a man to come with him to watch shooting stars on the beach in the northern coastal resort of Rimini.
She alleges the 19-year-old then attacked and raped her. The man has been arrested and local media reports that the suspect is from Switzerland and of Bosnian origin.
Defending the suspect, lawyer Piergiorgio Tiraferri argued the girl had agreed to have sexual intercourse but later felt guilty for cheating on her boyfriend.
He claimed that the teenager had been driven by guilt to falsely accuse his client of rape.
The suspect has been remanded in custody for the duration of the preliminary investigation. The case continues.
Last August, two women reported being raped on a beach in the same town.
A third woman said a man attempted to rape her but she managed to escape.
