Eight Men Arrested in UK Over Global Drug-Rape Network
3rd July 2026
Eight men have been arrested in the UK as part of an international investigation into the organised drugging and raping of women by their partners.
The National Crime Agency (NCA) said it was working alongside Europol and the FBI as part of an investigation into an internet forum in which members shared graphic videos of the sexual abuse of unconscious women.
Investigators said they had identified more than 270 people linked to the forum but did not know the true scale of the offending, and that other forums – which were unknown to law enforcement – were operating.
