A group of social media ‘influencers’ are accused of raping a 16-year-old girl in a case that has sent shockwaves through Portugal.

The assault, which took place in the city of Loures, a district of Lisbon, was filmed and then shared online for more than 32,000 people to watch but no one reported it to authorities.
