South American man has been arrested, accused of raping an 18-year-old girl on the hard shoulder of the Benalmadena-Malaga motorway. According to the victim, she and a friend were in Benalmadena Costa’s Plaza Solymar, and wanted to go to Fuengirola. They decided to hitch-hike and were offered a ride by the alleged rapist. After dropping off the first of the two women, he started to drive in the direction requested by the victim. But shortly afterwards, she noticed he had changed course on to the motorway in the direction of Malaga City. He allegedly pulled up on the hard shoulder, tied her up and blindfolded her, and proceeded to attempt to rape her. The victim says she put up a tremendous fight to resist him and he eventually gave up. However, instead of releasing her, he drove to a car park in Arroyo de la Miel, removed her blindfold and forced her to have sex with him. Following the alleged rape, the 31-year-old suspect drove to Fuengirola. As they arrived at the seafront, the victim managed to escape and ran off to get help. She found a Local Police patrol who took her to Las Lagunas Health Centre where she received medical attention.
Given the serious nature of the crime, the case was passed on to the National Police who later managed to trace the car and identify and arrest the suspect
