What have THEY done now to arouse the wrath of the Bee Hole End gang? And would we have to intern Peter Andre because of his family connections? I honestly can't see them being a threat to world peace.

Lovely country Cyprus, lovely people.
Every country has its faults, and its idiots, and if you refused to go to any of them you'd spend your holidays in your back garden.

Re: Should We Boycott Cyprus
Really tough one. Heard the girls friend on the radio this morning, she was treated awfully. It seems there is plenty of evidence suggesting the court got this one wrong and not only that the way the police and justice system behaved leaves a lot to be desired, at best.

The 12 teenage boys involved are getting condemned by all and sundry in Israel after being found to be having taken videos of themselves and the girl on their phones according to the press......
I hope this sorry episode acts as a deterrent to youngsters on holidays getting themselves into trouble ... but I very much doubt it.

I don’t know if the video evidence I've seen is different from the video evidence available during the trial, I suspect it's the same which is why she got convicted of lying.
There's no miscarriage of justice, she falsely accused 12 lads of raping her. The videos completely clear them, she was a willing participant.
I imagine she deeply regretted it and wanted to change the narrative after the fact but as anyone who has seen the videos will tell you, it was pretty conclusively consensual on her part.

Re: Should We Boycott Cyprus
I've not seen any videos, I've read there is one of her having supposed consensual sex with 2-3 men.
This is not evidence of her having consensual sex with all 11 men.
You can remove your consent. Video evidence of consensual sex at one point in time does not mean all sex from then onward is consensual.
If you are using a video of her 'enjoying' sex at one moment in time as evidence that a rape did not take place at a later time you need to reconsider your understanding of rape and consent during sex.
Not to mention the other dozen or so MASSIVE inconsistencies this case includes.

Re: Should We Boycott Cyprus
One of the inconsistencies is that she did not admit to consensual sex with any of the men, so far as I can gather. If she had consensual sex with two or three and was raped by 8 or 9, but told the police that all 11 had raped her, her evidence is still tainted and can't be trusted to convict anyone with.CombatClaret wrote: ↑Wed Jan 08, 2020 12:23 amI've not seen any videos, I've read there is one of her having supposed consensual sex with 2-3 men.

No-one comers out of this well. At least some of the 11 men are almost certainly rapists and are certainly horrible pieces of humanity, and the Cypriot government is clearly delving in the muck heap as well with its interference with the process of law. This girl is the one coming out of it worst, which is hardly fair. But she isn't innocent as the day is long, by any means.

Nobody raped her, she had consensual sex and regretted it so tried to make a false claim which she has rightly been convicted over.
She claims she will take it to the court of European rights which will also find her guilty of lying.

Unfortunately (for her) the evidence tells another story for which she has rightly been convicted.
She won't be pursueing it any further, the actual truth is that she had consensual sex with a large amount of partners and then lied by saying they'd raped her.

Re: Should We Boycott Cyprus
The judge said: "The defendant gave police a false rape claim, while having full knowledge that this was a lie.
"There was no rape, or violence, and police had carried out a thorough investigation making all necessary arrests."
Imagine if someone had done that to you or your son?
Or put the shoe on the other foot and imagine a man was making a false claim against your daughter?
Rape is an evil and inexcusable crime but so is falsely accusing people of it to cover up your own mistakes/ill-considered choices which is clearly what happened regardles of how the people on the girl's side are trying to spin it to salvage her reputation.

Imagine if someone had done that to you or your son?
35 bruises on her legs, arms and buttocks – as well as marks on her eyes and knees – were compiled into a diagram and shown in court by an expert who has seen pictures her body, according to the Mail on Sunday.
Any additional bruising on her torso was missing from the evidence because police did not take pictures of her without her top on. Pathologist Marios Matsakis, an expert witness for the woman’s defence, criticised the omission and told The Mail on Sunday: ‘I have no doubts that violence was exercised on the body.’
He added that the data from the diagram ‘is related to rape’

Some of the men lied too, denying any involvement until DNA evidence was presented, they then did a 360 and said they did have sex but it was consensual.
One man had his girlfriend produce false evidence of an alibi for not being there at the time.
Given all the questions in this story, a coerced retraction after 8 hours in police custody without a lawyer or translator. None of the men being called to give evidence etc
But you are happy to point the finger at the woman in this case and state with absolute certainty she made everything up as is 100% in the wrong, that worries me.

Watch where it goes now, nowhere.
The decision in the High Court in London would be the same, she falsely accused them of rape, there's no ambiguity in the evidence, she is a more than willing paticipant.

Does she agree to this on video or is it that she isn’t fighting them off that makes you think she consented?

As I keep saying, the video is entirely conclusive, she acts like you would expect a porn star in a video of consensual sex between a girl and twelve boys, to say she does all the "heavy lifting" is no exaggeration.

Yes, the Judge who heard the case from the point of view of the prosecution and the defense, considered the evidence and then convicted her of fabricating a rape claim.
Who are you citing?
If she appeals it it will be upheld, if she takes it to the European Court it will be upheld.
She should really be spending a long time in prison for trying to ruin innocent young lives but whatever, you can ignore it but the turth is actually out, she won't be taking it any further.
