A 21-year-old Norwegian suspected of raping a 19-year-old Irish woman near Split has been taken into custody.

A 21-year-old Norwegian man has been placed under investigation by the Split County State Prosecutor’s Office for allegedly raping a 19-year-old Irish woman in the Split-Dalmazia region. According to the prosecutor's statement, there is a justified suspicion that the Norwegian committed the act without the victim's consent and using force. The suspect was detained in custody due to the risk of fleeing. Earlier reports from 'Slobodna Dalmacija' indicated that the incident occurred near Bacevac beach after the couple met at a nightclub in Poljud. The victim claimed she did not want sexual contact and tried to distance herself, but the suspect allegedly used force. The suspect denied the allegations during interrogation, claiming they only kissed and left the beach after a sea lion appeared. Forensic analysis of clothing traces and biological evidence is ongoing, and no formal indictment has been filed yet.
