The boy’s mum immediately challenged the man after seeing what unfolded, reports say.

In response to her confrontation, the man is said to have stopped kissing the boy.

The alleged kiss took place at an unnamed hotel on Wednesday afternoon in the Brit holiday hotspot.

Stunned witnesses who had been relaxing around the pool alerted hotel staff.

Local police rushed to the scene before arresting the man on suspicion of sexual assault.

The Romanian appeared in court on Thursday afternoon after having spent a night in jail.

The British boy’s family are understood to have returned to the UK since the ordeal.

It is not clear whether they cut their holiday short or were scheduled to fly back to the UK on the date they did.

It comes after members of a “wolf pack” who raped a British teenager in a Magaluf hotel were named.

The seven French men and one Swiss national accepted prison sentences totalling over 73 years after striking plea deals with prosecutors as their four-day trial was about to begin.

They had been warned they faced being caged for more than 150 years if convicted.

The group were publicly identified in March – as details of the horror incident on August 14 2023 at the BH Mallorca Resort were also revealed.

All eight admitted to filming the sickening gang rape that scarred their victim for life in room 108 of the Magaluf hotel.

Two of the men posted the horror footage on Snapchat.

French tourists Khalil Abderrahmen Mejbri and Romain Charles Michel Galatioto “orally penetrated” their victim, who had been drinking heavily and during the half-hour-long gang rape “fell into a state of unconscious”.

Galatioto did so seven times, according to court documents all the men have signed as part of their plea bargain deals.

Frenchman Anthony Guy Gerard Wengler and Swiss national Lucas Haiaiel Ngandjeu Djamen Tchatchou raped her at “least once”, as well as Frenchman Thomas Eric Coretin Wisniewski.

Tchatchou and Wengler, who were staying in room 108, also “spat” at her while she was face-down after Frenchman Satilmis Sahan slapped her.

French national Anthony Auque, who was holidaying with Wengler, and fellow Frenchman Mouhamadou Wade watched on with the rest of the ‘Wolf pack’.

Mejbri and Wisniewski accepted a nine-year prison sentence for a crime of “sexual assault with carnal access”, a severe form of sexual crime involving non-consensual sexual penetration of the victim.

Wengler, Tchatchou and Galatioto were handed 11-year jail sentences after admitting the same offence.

Sahan admitted a crime of “sexual assault without penetration” for which he was given a four-year prison sentence.

All eight men were each handed two years and three month prison sentences after admitting a crime of violation of privacy relating to the recordings they made on their mobile phones.
