'KIDNAPPER'S LAIR'

Inside the bedroom where Brit glamour model Chloe Ayling claims she was held captive… and where she slept in the same bed as her abductor

Chloe pointed out the bed she had bizarrely shared with Lucasz during her kidnap near Turin, Italy

THIS is the chilling moment "kidnapped" model Chloe Ayling returned to the bed she shared with her alleged abductor in an isolated Italian farmhouse.

Harrowing footage shown in court sees 20-year-old Ayling, dressed in short jeans and a grey strappy top, walking detectives through the hideout near Turin.

"This is where I slept with Lucasz," Chloe says pointing to a double bed in the footage. "He was on one side and I was on the other."

It was shot by detectives investigating her complicated abduction by Lukasz Herba last July.

Mum-of-one Ayling claims she was drugged with ketamine and bundled into the back of a car by Herba when she showed up for a fake photo shoot.

She was released five days later but critics pointed to footage of her shopping with Herba as evidence the kidnap was a publicity stunt.

Forensic toxicologist Angela Napolitano told the court a urine sample for ketamine came back negative but a hair sample showed evidence of the drug.

Prosecutors say she was injected with the horse tranquilliser after she was snatched and a needle mark was found on her wrist.

During cross-examination, Ms Napolitano said it was not possible to establish when exactly the ketamine had been taken as it can stay in hair samples for up to eight weeks.

Prosecutor Paolo Storari also told the court he wanted to question Herba on Wednesday, when the trial resumes.

Other witnesses including Chloe's agent Phil Green - and Herba's brother Michal - are also expected to testify.

Michal is fighting extradition to Italy and his lawyer George Hepbourne Scott told The Sun: "Unless they drop the request to extradite him there is no way he is going to testify."

Both brothers are originally from Poland but live in Sandwell, West Midlands and both deny kidnapping.

Earlier footage played in court showed her telling cops how she and Herba had gone fruit and shoe shopping in nearby Viu.

Gianluca Simontacchi of the Milan flying squad, said Chloe was "distressed" when asked to return to the farmhouse where she endured "physical and psychological violence".

He added: "She was a little nervous and distressed to go back but she returned with her lawyer so we could film."

At the farmhouse Chloe described how she had been bound by her hands and feet with handcuffs.

Chloe's lawyer Francesco Pesce asked him if he thought she had been "believable" during the filming but the judge overruled the question.

Shopkeeper Gianluigi Costamer told the court how he had seen Herba and Chloe outside his fruit and veg shop.

He said: "The guy came in and bought a few things and as he paid the girl came in.

He said: "I saw them together two or three times. They were smiling and waving at me. I thought they were a couple.

"They went for a walk outside the farmhouse. I saw him a couple of times on his own."

Shoe shop owner Emiliana Morando pointed out Herba in court and said: "He came in with a girl.

"They were in my shop for five minutes. She bought a pair of shoes and she wore them out of the shop.

"They were women’s shoes. They paid together and then they left. She put them on straight away. I put her old ones in a bag."

Earlier this month, the court heard how Herba agreed to let Chloe go but only if certain conditions were met - or he would kill her and her family.

He said he wanted 50,000 bitcoins to be paid, and she was to say she had not been kidnapped or mention the Black Death group while also saying she had been treated well.

The court heard Ayling had endured "physical and psychological violence" during her kidnap, having been drugged, bundled into a large black hold-all and injected with ketamine.

She had also been handcuffed and threatened but according to investigators this was all part of a plot by the brothers to make one of them appear “good” so she would not complain.
