A case of attempted rape was taken by the Sparta police authorities as a 40-year-old man of Pakistani origin attempting to assault a 22-year-old woman on the morning of February 18.

The Prosecutor of Sparta filed a criminal prosecution against the 40-year-old for the attempted rape of the 22-year-old in the centre of the Peloponnesian town.

The girl, of Greek origin, was returning from work at a restaurant and stopped at the Piraeus Bank ATM on K Palaiologou Street.

The girl’s friend had reached the spot, pushed the perpetrator and prevented the worst.
