What can women do if they are raped on holiday?
They can contact the local British consulate or embassy to ask for assistance in getting medical and legal help. They can request that the tour company provides them with an early return flight (most claim to do this) on their return they can contact their local Rape Crisis Centre who will help. If they have reported the incident/s to the police abroad, they need then to report it to their local police on return, as they may be involved in handling papers. All papers for the prosecution will have to be in the local language to the country where the attack took place. A good solicitor in the UK will help with this. Once home the Foreign Office is the place to contact for up- dates.
