She had no lawyer. No trial. Yet she was silenced for life - even barred from speaking to the police.

It looks like the intention was then to bankrupt Ms Berki.

The judge had mentioned she had no money, but the order says:

You'd expect the judgment would contain the discussion of whether these restrictions were necessary and proportionate (or even lawful).

It does not.

A lawyer would have raised these points. Ms Berki had no lawyer.

    This puts her situation in a different light.

    If she speaks out, she'll have her assets seized by the Court. If she doesn't speak out, she'll have her assets seized by her rapist.

    If you're gonna lose everything either way...
