The National Police are handling a case involving an allegation of a group sexual assault involving eight men and a 26-year-old male in Madrid. The incident is said to have occurred on New Year’s Eve in Las Cruces Park, located in the Carabanchel district. The case has drawn attention from local authorities as they work to gather evidence and verify timelines, with investigators focusing on every detail to determine what happened that night.
According to the report filed with the Madrid Municipal Police on Monday morning, the complainant was subjected to harassment and physical assault after a night of revelry. Police sources, corroborated by reporting from El Mundo, indicate that the eight alleged attackers detained the individual in the area and that the investigation is being conducted by the Family and Women’s Care Unit (UFAM) of the Madrid Police Department. The case has prompted a formal inquiry to assess the sequence of events, confirm the identities of those involved, and determine whether any breaches of law occurred during the incident.
Initial statements indicate that the victim, described as a Honduran national, approached Carabanchel after the events at Las Cruces Park. He reportedly interacted with two women near the park entrance before joining a larger group that included eight men. The women reportedly left the scene, and the remaining group allegedly led the man into the park where, according to the accounts received by authorities, the complainant claimed he was assaulted. It has been reported that he was restrained and that the alleged actions included sexual contact, though official conclusions are pending further investigation and forensic assessments. Authorities emphasize the importance of a careful, factual examination of all testimonies and physical evidence to establish a clear and accurate record of the incident.
