Woman shares chilling new details after intruder checked her naked body out with torch while she slept next to her partner
A woman has shared her horror after seeing CCTV footage which showed a masked intruder leering at her naked body while she was asleep next to her partner.
The footage shows Angie Castillo lying next to her boyfriend Alex Varona, 34, when a burglar entered their room.
The masked individual appears to be fixated on Angie, repeatedly shining his torch over her body. He was also seen walking through their Marbella property - even making direct eye contact with one of the cameras.
The couple - who released the footage in an attempt to catch the culprit - says that their security cameras caught him returning to their bedroom on several different occasions, leading them to suspect he might have had a sinister motive in mind.

Take a look at the footage here:
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Angie believes she would have been raped if her partner wasn't with her.
She said the intruder came into the room 'eight times' and was 'looking in between my legs, at my intimate parts, looking at my face' over a 32-minute period.
"He forgot all about the burglary. He was more interested in looking at me," she said.
After spending much of their time looking at Angie, the robber took €300 (£260) in cash from her purse and fled.
Since the ordeal, Angie says she is 'traumatised', adding: "Before I go to the toilet at night, I look at the cameras. If Alex leaves the bed at night, I jump. I am now seeing a psychologist."
Alex, who is a black belt in jiu-jitsu, is convinced that he could have detained the individual had he been awake.
"I can detain nearly anyone. Someone came into our house and with the knowledge that I have, you can imagine how angry I felt," he said.
"If I had woken up then the video that everyone has seen on social media would have been very different, I would have detained him until the authorities would have arrived, without doing him any harm."
Alex - who trains six days a week and 'about three times a day' - had returned from a jiu-jitsu tournament in Germany the day before.
"The intruder did not steal anything from me, but perhaps he stole my pride. For me being a jiu-jitsu black belt and doing what I do, I should not have any excuse," he added.
Angie said that she went to the toilet half an hour after the intruder had left the house, as she continued: "Perhaps if I had seen him I would have screamed.
"Alex would have done something. But the intruder might have been carrying a knife or a pistol."
She advises homeowners to install alarm systems after claiming that 'Marbella is a bit dangerous now with people coming into people's houses'.
Police are investigating the incident but are yet to identify or arrest the suspect.
