A BRITISH mum of four has told how her Turkish holiday turned into a nightmare when she was stripped and dragged down a road in a brutal sex assault.
The victim, known only as Anne, 45, had accepted a ride from a "taxi-driver" motorcyclist – but to her horror he rode her to a secluded spot instead of her four-star hotel in the resort of Marmaris.
Now she has bravely come forward about her ordeal to warn other Brits holidaying there.
Anne was spending a fortnight in the sun with her husband and youngest daughter, she told Mirror Online.
Then one night after meeting some friends from the UK she decided to go for a drink.
When she lost her pals she decided to go back to her hotel alone.
But after accepting a lift from a biker she realised he had simply ridden past the turn-off to her hotel.
Instead he stopped at the end of a cul-de-sac enclosed by forest.

Anne said her attacker ran away when a car came near.
She was then given a lift back to her hotel by a good Samaritan.
