Suspect Detained in Palma for Lewd Conduct
A 23-year-old German tourist was arrested in Palma, Mallorca, following an incident at a hotel on Playa de Palma in the early hours of Monday morning. The tourist is accused of sneaking into a woman's hotel room and touching her while she slept[1].
The woman reportedly woke up to find the stranger sitting on her bed, stroking her leg. She and her partner immediately alerted the hotel reception, who then contacted the police[1]. Upon arrival, the police arrested the German tourist. The intruder did not offer any resistance[1].
According to the police spokesman, the case is "strange" and the German will now be brought before an investigating judge[1]. If found guilty of sexual assault, the German could face a prison sentence, although it is likely to be suspended[1].
As of the latest update dated August 14, 2025, no further details about the status of the investigation or official charges beyond the alleged sexual assault have been reported publicly[1]. The exact hotel name has not been disclosed in the available sources.
The police have ruled out the possibility that the German was drunk or under the influence of other drugs[1]. It is believed he gained entry via the shared balcony and disappeared into his own room next door to the couple's[1]. The female tourist woke up in shock when she noticed the stranger next to her on the bed[1]. The German claimed to have no memory of the incident[1].
The arrest was confirmed by the police, and the male partner threw the intruder out of the room, preventing any physical altercation[1]. The incident marks a disturbing event for tourists and locals alike in the popular holiday destination.
