Five of 12 Israeli teens arrested on suspicion of raping a 19-year-old British tourist in Cyprus have been released – including one saved by a selfie his girlfriend took with him sleeping next to her, according to reports.

“My girlfriend’s selfie saved my life, I will never come back here ever again,” the youth told Israeli media after returning home Thursday, the Jerusalem Post reported.

It also was reported that police received results of DNA tests that apparently cleared some of the dozen teens, who range in age from 15 to 18.

“Cracks begin to form in the complainant’s version. I am hopeful that the version of the other suspects will refute the harsh accusations against them,” said attorney Nir Jeslovich, who represents some of the suspects, according to the newspaper.

“I’m not guilty, everything is all right,” one of the teens told Israeli news outlet Ynet news.

Meanwhile, the rest of the young Israeli tourists who have been detained – but not charged – were due to appear again before a judge in Cyprus on Friday.

Police are considering possible rape and conspiracy charges against the teens after the alleged victim reported that she had been raped in the resort town of Ayia Napa last week.

The suspects were arrested on July 17 and remanded in custody for eight days.

The youth whose girlfriend snapped the fortuitous selfie recounted the events on the night of the arrest.

“I was sitting in my room, I don’t know how they got in but suddenly two police officers jumped me and cuffed me. At first I did not understand what they wanted, but at the station a translator told me, ‘You are suspected of raping a girl,’” he told Israel’s Channel 2.

He said he told police to “go ask my girlfriend, I was with her, we have pictures together. I don’t understand how they didn’t check that.”

While the suspects did not deny knowing the young woman, they claimed that any sexual acts were done with her consent, the Jerusalem Post reported.

One of the Israelis also provided police with a video on his phone that captured sexual activity – and he asked the investigators if they could see a rape taking place.

According to Cypriot media reports, the woman apparently had a previous relationship with at least one of the suspects.

But on the night in question, she reportedly claimed that two of the teens helped hold her down forcibly at the Pambos Napa Rocks Hotel, where their friends took turns raping her, the Times of Israel reported, citing a Channel 2 report.

“I do remember that until about 1 a.m., the friends I did not know raped me, some wore a condom, and some didn’t. They hurt my whole body… one of them held me down, and then I saw at least 12 faces … for an hour or so, one after the other,” she told police, according to the report.

“After they let me go I fainted, and then I ran out of the room, met friends and they took me half-naked to the clinic,” she added.

Nine of the teens have admitted to being in the room when the alleged rape occurred and three refused to answer police questions, according to Channel 2, the Times of Israel reported.

The Israeli Haaretz newspaper also has reported that police found five used condoms and 13 condom wrappers in the room where the alleged sexual assault occurred.
