A week of horror: Two young Swiss women say they were kidnapped and raped for 7 days in Paris

Two Swiss women, aged 17 and 18, were found Friday evening by the police in the 17th arrondissement of Paris, reports “Le Parisien”. The young women claim to have been kidnapped, beaten and raped for a week.

The testimony of the two Swiss women is chilling. The young women had come to Paris to visit the older woman’s boyfriend. But, once they arrived at this young man’s house to spend their vacation, they were allegedly kidnapped and raped. Their kidnapper then allegedly threatened to kill them before stealing their phones.

Then, they were allegedly forced to meet another man who took them to his home to prostitute them. “This man would have taken them to his house and they would have suffered physical and sexual violence again,” specifies a source close to the case. The two young girls have bruises on their upper bodies which could be the result of kicks and slaps,” reports the daily.

The investigation is continuing in order to resolve the remaining gray areas. No suspect has been identified, and the location of the kidnapping remains unknown.

The Paris prosecutor’s office has been informed of the case and insists on the need to exercise caution. Indeed, “after initial checks, these two people talk about consensual relationships, but suggest that this would not necessarily have been the case for a third unidentified woman.”
