A Russian model jailed in Dubai after she broke her spine jumping from a sixth floor window 'to avoid being raped or knifed to death' has spoke for the first time.
Ekaterina Stetsyuk, 23, claims her 39-year-old boss had tried to rape her at knifepoint, forcing her to fight him off before jumping naked from a hotel room window.
However, her boss, a Pakistani businessman who allegedly ran an 'event-modelling' company, accused her of attempted murder, claiming she had turned the knife on him, and Ms Stetsyuk was arrested while still in hospital.
Allegations: Ekaterina Stetsyuk, 23, claims her 39-year-old boss had tried to rape her at knifepoint, forcing her to fight him off before jumping from a hotel room window in Dubai
Tables turn: She was arrested while still in hospital after her boss, who she claims attacked her, told police she had tried to kill him
Her story: The 23-year-old claims Dubai police dragged her from hospital while she was still recovering from her surgery
Ms Stetsyuk, from Irkutsk in eastern Siberia, only managed to survive the jump from the sixth floor by landing on an awning which broke her fall.
She suffered several back injuries and needed two operations and a titanium plate in her spine to ensure she would be able to walk again.
Police came to her hospital and dragged her to jail following two surgeries even though she could barely move, she said.
'They just grabbed me from my hospital bed,' she said in her first interview after returning to her homeland.
'At that time I could move only my fingers and my neck.

Back on her feet: The young model was able to return to Russia after three months in jail
'They put me onto wheelchair, took away my mobile phone and brought me to the jail.'
She said: 'I was blamed that I attacked him with a knife, that I injured him, so I must be put i jail.
'It was made out it was only me who was to blame. This is Muslim country and the law is on the side of the man.'
She said she came to Dubai after the modelling agency had made her an offer to fly to Dubai which 'no-one could resist'.
She had resisted his advances when she arrived in the country but he invited her to his home during business hours in a hotel-apartment complex, she said.
She refused to touch alcohol.
'He began to harass me sexually, touch my knees,' she said. 'I did not want this so I removed his hand.
'He became angry, and even crazy. I realised that I had to get away quickly.
'I ran into the corridor, but he grabbed me by my hair and dragged back into the room.
'He grabbed a knife and pushed me against the wall, clutching me by the neck, and starting to suffocate me.'
He demanded that she undress and she was 'scared and obeyed', it was reported.
Ms Stetsyuk did not comment on reports claiming that her job in Dubai had involved escort work for which she was due to be paid £5,000 a month
Life in jail: The 23-year-old says she only survived her weeks in prison thanks to another Russian inmate, who washed her and helped her go to the toilet
'I was so scared, I feared not so much that he could rape me, the scariest at that moment was that he would kill me,' said Stetsyuk in first first TV interview on her ordeal.
She fought him for the knife broke free from him then 'high on emotions….. I just jumped out of the window', she said.
She doesn't remember much about the fall but said: 'After I fell … there was a crowd standing there and just watching me lying there...
'It was broad day and it was rather strange to lie there motionless and everyone just staring.'
In hospital she was told she had broken two vertebra in her back - but the fall could easily have killed her. Soon after the March surgery she was taken into detention.
She claims she only survived because another Russian inmate in her cell washed her and helped her go to the toilet.
'For quite a long time, I could not move, could not walk,' she said.
Russia made high-level diplomatic representations but even so it took three months before she was allowed home.
'I was deported back to Russia, but he was not punished at all,' she said.
End to glam life: She said she had been lured to Dubai with an offer she couldn't refuse
The man she accused of attacking her was deported to Pakistan at the same time she left the country.
Stetsyuk told her story to the TV show Andrey Malakhov On Air Live in Moscow.
She admitted to making a mistake in falling for the offer of a job.
'Dubai, it's a beautiful picture,' she said. 'Of course, all this attracts girls.
'Now I realise it was very stupid. And I do not want to justify myself. I think that I was very lucky, it could have ended far worse.'
She did not comment on earlier Russian reports claiming that her job in Dubai had involved escort work for which she was due to be paid £5,000 a month.
Ivan Gubanov, Russian vice-consul, who helped negotiate her freedom, said at the time: 'It is better to show compassion.
'This is about a young girl, our compatriot, who really fell from the sixth floor, miraculously survived, having injured her spine and internal organs.'
Her friend Irina Grossman said of her fall: 'To save her life and dignity, she jumped from the sixth floor.
'It's a miracle she survived.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
