A 19-year-old girl from Sweden identified as CEB claimed she was raped in Kuta, Bali Police said Friday.

"She refused to be questioned further, but we will hunt the rapist by gathering information in Kuta," Bali Police chief Insp. Gen. Sutisna said as quoted by kompas.com

"We hope to find the rapist quickly because the case happened to a foreigner."

He added foreign tourists should be able to protect themselves because police had a limited number of officers to safeguard all the tourists.

Police suspected the rapist was an ojek (motorcycle taxi) driver in Kuta.
