A BRITISH woman gang-raped on the streets of Paris after a music festival may have been filmed by her attackers, investigators fear.
The tourist was found sobbing in the street in the early hours of Saturday morning after she was assaulted by a gang of hooded men.
It follows similar attacks at the event in the French capital – one that has become notorious with violent crime and a lack of policing.
The latest victim – who cannot be named for legal reasons – remains in the Cochin hospital, in the centre of the French capital.
She was set upon less than half-a-mile away during the Fête de la Musique, which means Music Party.

Thousands of people were on the street, many of them drinking heavily and taking drugs, as they listened to local bands and individual singers overnight between Friday and Saturday.
After leaving Olympia hall the woman was attacked by several men who pulled her into a secluded area before raping her and stealing her phone.
She was found in tears and stumbling through the streets of Paris' 1st arrondissement by firefighters.
An investigating source, referring to the shopping and arts complex, said: "The attack happened around the Châtelet-Les Halles forum in the early hours of Saturday morning.
"She was walking back from a concert at the Olympia music venue and says she was approached by a group of men.
"They surrounded her, and attacked her, and the fear is that they recorded their actions using their mobile phones."
The woman’s own phone was stolen by the men, who are thought to have been wearing hoodies to hide their identities.
Police are investigating the incident.
No arrests have been made.
It comes after similar gang rape at the Fête de la Musique in 2021, when a woman was surrounded in a street close to the Champs Élysées.

Within a day, a video of the attack was circulating on social media, and it was used as evidence to try and find the rapists.
Despite numerous appeals, they have not been found, however, and the case remains active.
