As reported by French news outlet Le Parisien, the 25-year-old tourist told police she was raped by five people, after she was found "disoriented and unable to speak a word of French" in the early morning hours of Saturday, July 20.
The woman was found after the incident standing outside Dounia, a Lebanese kebab shop on Boulevard de Clichy in Paris' 18th Arrondissement, with her dress "backwards" and partly torn off. Reports showed she made complaints to the staff at the shop, but she was unable to give details on how or where the incident happened.
CCTV footage has arisen showing the frightened woman running into Dounia and requesting help from the store's staff.
Alarmed customers and staff crowded around her in a bid to comfort her when a man entered the kebab shop.
The woman signaled that the man was her attacker and he boldly walked up to her and patted her on the back. A customer then confronted the man who immediately fled.
Police arrived minutes later, with the woman later telling officers the men were "of African appearance." Firefighters later took the woman to Bichat-Claude Bernard Hospital.
The owner of the shop said in an interview that the woman could not stop crying and her dress was damaged. Other reports stated the woman was carrying her underwear in her hand and that she had her phone stolen.
The victim, who is believed to have been in Paris for the Fete de la Musique music festival, is reported to have had a flight home to Australia booked on Sunday, July 21.
The Paris Prosecutor's Office said police are investigating the allegations, with CCTV footage presently under inspection.
"The investigation into the charge of gang rape likely to have been committed on the night of July 19 to 20 has been entrusted to the 2nd judicial police district," the Paris Prosecutor's Office said.
The Paris branch of Alliance Police Nationale, the country's main police union, is determined that investigators would "do everything to quickly identify the individuals and bring them to justice."
"Several investigation techniques will be implemented in conjunction with the technical and scientific police," the union said.
The incident follows a related case involving a British tourist who was raped and robbed during the Fête de la Musique on June 22. The suspects in this case are yet to be arrested.
