A top Disney official is in hot water. Gursel Sahinbas, who managed Disney's private island in the Bahamas, is accused of some serious crimes. A woman from Florida says he attacked her on a beach. She told police that Sahinbas invited her for a swim. But things took a dark turn. The woman says he ignored her pleas to stop. She reported the incident to Bahamian police after she got back home. Sahinbas was arrested on another island near Disney's resort. He showed up in court and got bail. But there are conditions. He can't go near the woman who accused him. His lawyer asked if he could return to his home in England. The judge said yes, but he must come back for a hearing in January.
This isn't the first time Sahinbas has been in the news. Earlier this year, he was featured in a local newspaper. He was helping kids learn about farming. He seemed like a nice guy, teaching them how to grow veggies. But now, his reputation is on the line. Disney has cut ties with him. His lawyer said he's no longer working for the cruise line. It's a big fall from grace for someone who was once a well-known figure. The case is still ongoing. It's a reminder that people in high positions can face serious allegations.
