That is so so terrible!
I am sorry for her and her family.
These things should never happen. In any country.
Hope she manages to suffer as less as possible. And we will be aware and be careful.
I'm so sorry for your friends daughter. That is really horrible and shows that PV is one of the worst crime nests in the Mediterranean. And the powers to be do not seem to care!
Just today this article appeared in the Times:
But sadly most crimes like the one your friends daughter experienced are not even reported anymore.
Can you name the establishment/club where it started so that our forum readers are warned.

Ricky - from what we understand it didn't happen at a club/bar but in the street - she had got some pizza from a walk-up place and was approached by them there. I won't say more out of respect for the victim....suffice to say no-one has been impressed by the official response (no female Police Officers available to take her statement; no "morning after pill", etc.)

As such I think you are correct George, but according to this website, there may be alternatives:
put in Malta and it lists several regular birth control bills that have formulations that should be effective in the doses stated...of course I can't vouch for that info or even confirm that those pills are available in Malta, but I will surely pass it on to family of the victim for them to look into.

So is rape...so maybe two wrongs make a right in this situation.

I agree with you, but majority of Maltese don't, and neither does the law. They believe abortion is wrong even in the case of rape. They also believe the morning after pill (or the use of other medication post intercourse) is a form of abortion.
(I hope these * will be arrested and sent to jail)
I almost guarantee the Maltese will be blaming "foreigners" and the comments under the article on the website will almost be as disgusting as the crime.
its easy to point the finger of blame - but whoever the cuprits are I hope they catch them soon, sentence them and then chemically castrate them....I do hope a formal complaint is made but I do respect the victim and the family decision whatever that may be....
its just disgusting that this is still happening - and here of all places - meant to be a safe place....maybe the times are a changing.....hope not and hope its contained soon.

I've always know Paceville is a bit of a 'hole' and you get the odd punch up but I never imagined something like this could happen. Maybe I am naive for that. But i certainly wont be venturing there again in a hurry x

just another comment/article about Paceville and what goes on there !
Enjoy reading!

Paceville was the only area in Malta that I wouldn't have felt comfortable being alone in at night and that was years ago, I can only imagine it is worse now.
I hope that she is now getting the help she needs to enable her to deal with this and move on in time.
I just want to keep this post going until action is taken on this criminal hotspot of Malta. Beware anybody going there ! You will be robbed or worse ....
I believe that everybody involved in Paceville (clubs,owners,police,security guards,waiters) know what is going on. They are just waiting for you!
Regards
Ricky
PS For the authorities! I will keep this thread going until I have the feeling that action is being taken.
it's a good idea but Paceville is not really something to be joking about. I believe the whole rotten core needs to be taken out and not just the unsuspecting visitor. Paceville could be a really fun place if the police did their job !
And up to yesterday they were not ! I was there . It seems that an assignment to Paceville is a punishment for Maltese police officers and especially those that are overweight!
I hope that I don't get arrested for saying the truth ! If I do come visit me in Corradino Hilton -)))
Cheers
Ricky

I will be in the room next to you Ricky... the one with on suite

Also for anyone that can answer this is it illegal to bring the morning after pill with you from the states? I'm curious as too how they keeptrack or handle this. What happens if you are found in possession of having the pill? How illegal is it?
Thank you

I believe your name is Tim? I am Margit, two of my children and my niece lived on Malta and were very happy on lovely Malta. Me and my family regularly visted Malta. However my oldest son tragedly died after being robbed May 9th 2015 in Paceville. So unexpectedly and so brutal. We never knew Malta to be dangerous to be honest. Only now I find a lot more on the internet, but also surprisingly little, because we keep hearing new events on Malta, from friends of my son and daughter, that druggery muggery and rape happened and happens a lot in Paceville or partylife Malta. So I decided to start a fb page to warn future victims. My daughter, my niece and the friends of my son on Malta help me. This has to stop. Our children need to be safe from these culprits. The youngsters go to Malta for study, internership or work and are unaware of potential danger.
My fb page is not online yet, but I want to publish asap
Just 2 weeks ago I heard from a friend of my daughter who works at a languageschool on Malta that 3 girls were drugged, taken in a car by 3 men and raped.
Hope to hear from you. All the best, Margit, Justin's Mom

Hope the poor lady can get on with her life after such horrific incident.
Is this common throughout the island at night or is it exclusive to Paceville?
Is Paceville a hotspot for hard partying holidayers such as young British tourists ripping it up in Spain?
Incidents happen everywhere when alcohol is involved whether its UK/Ireland/Australia or wherever
so is it just one of these tragic stories or is it a lot more common in Malta/paceville than elsewhere?
Is there Mafia interest located throughout the island?
And a Swedish girl last Friday night/ Saturday morning in Gzira, there was an anonymous call about a rape taking place, police came, so she was saved in time I hope . This was in the papers, the former I could not find in the papers.
Please if you go out, stay together, stay safe, watch your drinks and if you left it unattended, don’t drink it anymore. Don’t go home on your own. Also a new spiked drink case is on the fb, this guy was rescued by his friends, he was ‘lucky’. He was brought to hospital by ambulance and the doctor told him that his blood contained drugs, did he take drugs? No he never did ! He was shocked later, to see pictures of himself unconscious on the floor in a Paceville club.
I am not saying this is only happening in Paceville , I am just telling that it does. This is indeed also possible elsewhere, I imagine. It is a shame these culprits bad name Paceville and Malta, they should be arrested. May be the police could do some sort of a stake out, a policewoman and or man in civilian clothes, waiting for it to happen, than they catch them may be. Or put working cctv and monitor this cctv. The public must be protected from these criminals.
Not just females but males too
Paceville is no more dangerous than any other town or city
don't take valuables when you go out drinking , don't leave drinks unattended and be careful accepting drinks from strangers.

Bit like Kavos then or Magaluf/Aya Nappa but without the 18-30 bar crawls
Quoting one of the comments : What are the police actually good for in Paceville? To protect the 'Gods' of Paceville ?
Well done for the Irish guy who showed civil courage !
It's time that the language and other tourists are made aware of the danger of Paceville and the lack of protection by the Maltese police.
