“Many girls were completely terrified and had tremendous anxiety attacks because they were suffering this in silence,” she told Reuters at the time. “They felt bad and were afraid to tell and be blamed for it.”
Spain is a pretty Catholic country, and even if religious attendance is dropping off, the ingrained beliefs can still remain. Madonna/Whore dichotomy still is very prevalent in certain parts of society there.
I don’t know what led you to believe that, but just look at wikipedia, only 56% of the population is catholic, 37.5% being non practising (and, in my experience as a spaniard, agnostic) and 16% actually practising.

Welcome to Christianity.
If a man sexually exploits a woman, it’s the woman’s fault for leading him astray.
This is how women are treated in deeply Christian communities.
Those women fear stepping forward to report assault or abuse because there are many in their community that will condemn them for it.
Welcome to religion at large
