HARRY Maguire’s sister’s eyes rolled back in her head and she began fitting after being injected with a “rape drug”, a friend of the family told a Greek court today.
Daisy was approached by two Albanians in Mykonos on Thursday as her brother and a group of pals went to get burgers following a night out clubbing.

But Maguire’s fiancée, Fern Hawkins, soon realised Daisy’s eyes were “rolling into the back of her head” – so the Man Utd captain and a group of male friends rushed over to help.
Maguire was this afternoon found guilty of assault, resisting arrest and bribery alongside brother Joe and pal Chris Sharman.
But he was spared a prison sentence, and was instead handed a sentence of 21 months and 10 days in prison, suspended for three years.
The two others involved in the brawl were sentenced to 13 months in prison suspended.
The football star will appeal his conviction, he has confirmed.
In a statement, he said: “Following the hearing, I have instructed my legal team with immediate effect to inform the courts we will be appealing.
“I remain strong and confident regarding our innocence in this matter – if anything myself, family and friends are the victims.”
Before the Greek judge’s verdict, a trial was held on the neighbouring island of Syros today.
In evidence, friend Ashden Morley said: “We held Daisy. Daisy began to start fitting. All the girls were screaming.
“People were coming down asking what happened, there was a large commotion.”
What we know so far:
At this point, a minibus Maguire had booked showed up so the panicked group piled in and told the driver they needed to go to a hospital, it was said.
But Mr Morley said they realised two cars were behind them “following our every movement” before the vehicle pulled up in a courtyard.
He added: “Our bus door opened and five or six males tried to force us off the bus by physically pulling us.”
The quantity surveyor, 27, told the court how they all feared they would be kidnapped and “held at ransom” as they were beaten with batons and kicked and stamped on.

One cop then allegedly kicked Maguire on the leg and told him: “Your career is over”.
With the women “in hysterics crying their eyes out”, the England star, 27, was arrested along with brother Joe and pal Chris.
Mr Morley said: “This was the first time that we knew we were at the police station.”
None of the defendants – including Maguire – were required in court today with all instead being represented by their legal team.
The court earlier heard how one cop required first aid when handcuffed Maguire attempted to break free – as another pal yelled “f**k the police”.
After they were taken inside the station, £190,000-a-week Maguire boasted about how “rich” he was as he tried to pay police off, it was said.
He allegedly said: “Do you know who I am? I am the captain of Manchester United, I am very rich, I can give you money, I can pay you, please let us go.”

The claims were made today as Maguire was named in Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the upcoming Nations League games, despite fears he would miss out.
Maguire’s top human rights lawyer Alexis Anagnostakis earlier tried three times to postpone the case but the judge dismissed his protests.
Once it finally got underway, he told the trial how the defender was “attacked by an Albanian group”.
It was then claimed there is video shot from outside Mykonos police station showing how the police “mistreated” them.
The footage also shows them in a state of “extreme agony”, Mr Anagnostakis said.
The lawyer added: “My clients did not beat anyone, accost anyone, or injure anyone.”

All three defendants had been charged with assault and violence against an officer.
The brothers are further charged with attempted bribery, while Maguire and Chris are accused of verbal assault.
The bribery charges carry a maximum sentence of up to five years in jail and a fine.
The group are able to appeal the decision in a higher court.

He is next due to play at Old Trafford for their first game of the season on September 19 against Crystal Palace.
