British women strip searched and locked up in Greek cell after prank on a friend

A pair of young British woman have told how they were strip-searched and locked in a blood-stained police cell for three days after a holiday prank back-fired on the island of Corfu. The 20-year-olds had saved for months to pay for their £2000 package holiday but it was ruined when a 'harmless prank' went wrong. They had met a group of boys at the beach on Saturday, August 24 and after an afternoon together they hid ones clothes a few sunbeds down while he went swimming. Shona Cox and Vicki Albone were later locked up and starved for 24-hours and lumped with £1600 of legal bills after being accused of nicking clothes and a £400 Rolex.
