A Czech woman jailed in Pakistan for trying to smuggle £1m of heroin into Ireland has posted a series of “no holds barred” videos to “tell her story”.
Detailing the “horrors she went through”, how she was “drawn” to the country and how she worked as a private escort, Tereza Hluskova said that “after much thought” she had “decided to let people know what really happened”. .
Arrested in January 2018 in possession of 19 pounds (8.5 kg) of heroin at Lahore’s AIIama IqbaI International Airport, Hluskova, then 22, was en route to Ireland via Dubai.
Detained by customs officials, Hluskova said she had gone to Pakistan to work as a model and someone had put the narcotics in her luggage.
She thought the police were “going to kill her” and described how in prison she was locked up “like an animal”, beaten and had to deal with scorching summers and freezing winters.

Arrested in January 2018 in possession of 19 pounds (8.5 kg) of heroin at Lahore’s AIIama IqbaI International Airport, Hluskova, then 22, was en route to Ireland via Dubai.
In a video posted online, a Pakistani customs officer is shown discovering the drugs hidden in the suitcase as Hluskova looks on.
She is then seen putting her head in her hands.
In 2019, she was sentenced to eight years and eight months in prison.
But after a series of appeals, she was released in 2022 having served just four years of her sentence.
Now, the woman has posted four ‘confessional’ videos detailing how she ended up in Pakistan.
After dropping out of school in his hometown of Uherské Hradiště, he started working in a cafe where he was eventually offered a job as an escort.
Saying that “conditions seemed favourable”, she was flown to Belgium, where she was taken “under the wing of a woman named Sara”.
Hluskova said: ‘First I wanted to check if I was right for the job.
“She told me to go have sex with her husband to see if it was worth it or not. So I did what she had to do.
To “cope” with the 45-year-old man with a villa and swimming pool, Hluskova said she turned to drugs and alcohol to “release her inhibitions and fear.”
Adopting the name Jennifer, she said she “learned to shut down emotions during intimate moments with clients.”
She said: ‘I felt almost nothing at all. Maybe the problem was that he drank too much.
“I had prune juice in one hand, vodka in the other, and within two hours I was lying there and they had to resuscitate me.”
‘A prostitute doesn’t enjoy sex, because in order to survive, she has to switch to robot mode and work.’

After a series of appeals, she was released in 2022 having served just four years of her sentence.
She added: ‘The man patted my leg and I knew my work was about to start. I went with him and it was brutal. Water bed, pool view, but I honestly don’t remember anything about it.
‘At the time, I was crazy about drugs and alcohol.
‘About an hour later Sara showed up. She fixed me another line of coke at the table, she said she’ll be fine and left again.
The next day, a friend took her to a Belgian bar where the escorts went to receive their clients.
Wearing a tight black mini dress and high heels, Hluskova revealed: “I had a meeting there with a man named Ludo, all I knew was he had red glasses and a moustache.”
“When I grabbed the doorknob, I thought I was going to throw up or run. But I said no. I was already inside, so I went inside.
After a brutal beating by a Turkish client who tried to choke her after sex, Hluskova said she got “revenge” by telling her pimp what had happened.

Hluskova said strangers came up to her and put decorations in her luggage and she had no idea they were filled with drugs.

In November last year, a man was jailed for three years after threatening terror attacks in Pakistan if Hluskova (pictured) was not released.
She said: ‘I told the boys how he treated me, and then they sent him to hell.’
The blonde was then told that she would be sent to the UK to do erotic photo modeling and get a visa before flying to Pakistan.
Staying in Manchester with a Pakistani man who was applying for his visa, he was told he would be traveling to the country via France.
She said: ‘Now I wonder how I could have been so stupid that there were such diversions when it was supposed to be a direct flight from England to Pakistan. But I didn’t realize it at the time.
When she finally arrived in Pakistan, she said she was horrified.
She said: ‘It was a disaster. Dirt everywhere on the ground, not even on the sidewalks, just scattered dirt.
Moving into a house without electricity with her “guardian” who had traveled with her from France, Hluskova said she was afraid to go out because she thought people in “typical Islamic clothing were hospital patients.”
Describing the photo shoot, he said: ‘They took me to some kind of field where there was only dirt and four big stones.
‘Well, I thought to myself that they probably don’t have money for a studio.’
He said he then spent two months waiting for the photos to appear online, but “they were never there.”
Finally told she could go home, Hluskova was arrested at the airport after customs officers found nearly 9kg of heroin in her luggage.
Video footage taken at the time shows officials rummaging through his luggage.
When they find the drugs, Hluskova is seen breaking down in tears.
In her latest video, Hluskova said: ‘I thought they were going to kill me.
“I admire the person who gets out of prison and is completely fine.

Tereza Hluskova was detained at Lahore airport in Pakistan while trying to board a flight to Dublin, Ireland.
‘I still have it (the experience) within me. From time to time I remember how they woke us up, how the girls beat us and how cold it was there.
“I had no medical help, I had to help myself, I was crying. I will have it in me for the rest of my life.
You could have had a headache or tuberculosis. The summer was calm, hot like in a sauna, so I soon sweated out the flu.
But in winter? She didn’t warm me or a blanket, or a sweatshirt, or hot tea. And on top of a cold and cough.
Sometimes I close my eyes and feel what’s there again. How terrible we were.
‘No family, locked up like animals, humiliation. And I try to get such thoughts out of my head right away, but sometimes they don’t go away right away.
Vowing to reveal more of her experiences in future videos, the now 27-year-old who works as a waitress said: ‘Now I have a job, I have a boyfriend and I’ve dyed my hair blonde again.
“A person who has been in prison for four years has to get used to socializing again.”
