Freya Heath

19 year old British woman Freya Heath^[1]^[2] accused 12 Israeli men of raping her at the Pambos Napa Rocks Hotel, Cyprus. All 12 men were arrested and held in custody in Cyprus.^[3] Three of the men admitted to consensual sexual contact with her, while nine rejected any contact with her. The 12 Israeli men stated they were beaten by both British tourists and Cypriot police after the allegation was made.^[4] Despite the fact that prosecutors apparently recognised that several of the men did not have sex with the woman they considered charging all 12 with conspiracy to commit a crime.^[5]

After video evidence and other information contradicted her story Heath admitted she made the entire episode up.^[6] She subsequently recanted her admission and claimed it had been coerced.

Under British law, it is an offence for a British citizen or resident to have sex with any person under 16 anywhere in the world.^[7] As such Heath should be investigated by British police for statutory rape.
