Evidently the term Taharrush Gamea became popular in Egypt. It is the practice of Arab men groping, sexually assaulting , raping a lone female.
It's been called the " Arabic rape game " and it has now spread to Europe.

I couldn't find big name American media outlet mentioning it but I only searched 1st 2 pages on google ; plus it would not be surprising if the big media outlets intentionally avoid talking about this.
The German daily Die Welt reported on this. Below article from said paper is in German.

Explanation from above paper of the physical practice of this rape/grope Arab Muslim phenomena
"
It is like being sandwiched in several circles of hell.
The first circle attacks you wildly, hungrily grabbing at your hair, face, mouth, breasts, hips, legs, or genitals. If your clothes are torn off somehow, the fingers of dozens of men will enter either cavity near the centre of your legs, raping you with their hands, if not with their own genitals. You scream, beg, and plead, but this only encourages them. Through tears you desperately scan the crowd for your allies, but they have either been beaten into submission or have gone to seek help.
The second circle surrounds you, waiting their turn, expending unspent energy by kicking at your ribs, pulling at your hair, or clawing at your body when they can. To encourage others or perhaps to alleviate their own guilt, they loudly call you a whore, slut, or even a Jew or a Hindu; anything to justify their actions.
The third circle acts as a shield. Distracting onlookers by trying to appear casual, these men form a barrier, almost hoping you will break free so that they can get in on the action.
For anyone who believes this to be an exaggeration, these disturbing videos should prove to be educational: "
Being a Pakistani daily, it does state the obligatory denial that this has nothing to do with Islam. It would be accurate to say this isn't a Muslim tradition as there are many Muslim communities around the world who don't do this. It does have a lot to do with Islam since ther religion is patriarchy on steroids and excuses men's behavior while imposing strict rules on women. It is also a religion that deems it acceptable to abuse non Muslims. You don't see Christian MiddleEasterners doing this.
