Man arrested after ‘kissing British boy, 4, in Magaluf hotel swimming pool’

A man has been arrested for kissing a four-year-old British boy in a Magaluf hotel swimming pool.

The Romanian 33-year-old was detained after allegedly going up to the boy and hugging and kissing him on the face in front of stunned holidaymakers.

The bizarre incident happened on Wednesday afternoon at an unnamed hotel in the Majorcan party resort.

The boy’s mother immediately challenged the man after seeing what was happening, prompting him to desist straight away. 

Officers took statements from witnesses and the child’s parents before arresting the suspect on suspicion of sexual assault.

He was escorted to court yesterday afternoon by two Civil Guard officers.

The cops led him into the court building in the Majorcan capital Palma in handcuffs, in the same top, shorts and sandals he had been wearing when he was arrested.

The British family are known to have returned home following the incident.
