A
popular model who kidnapped a rival and tortured her mercilessly for
posting an embarrassing picture of her on social media has been
arrested.
A Colombian model has been arrested at an airport on suspicion of
torturing a rival who posted unflattering pictures of her on social
media. The woman named Yeimy Rey was arrested by the police as she tried
to board a flight to Miami.
It was gathered that Yeimy and her sister Claudia executed the act
on the victim named Carolina Muñoz, 23, at a restaurant in the Colombian
capital Bogota.
It is believed the sisters subjected their victim submitted her to a
night of terror after driving her to a remote spot in the countryside.
The victim told police: “They bit me, tortured me, pulled my
hair and when we reached a remote spot in the car they cut all my
clothes off and left me totally naked.”
She also revealed that they threatened to destroy her life by
throwing acid into her face, shaving her hair off, and forcing her to
hand over the passwords to her social networking sites before posting
intimate photos of her on the Internet.
She told a Colombian newspaper: “I made a mistake and I accept
it. I posted some photos of them on social networking sites from the
days before they had surgery, when they were natural.
“But I didn’t do it out of spite, I did it to show people their
natural beauty and because of some very ugly comments they had made
about my photos and my teeth.”
Yeimy is in police detention after being held on an arrest warrant.
Speaking further on the case, her lawyer, Dario Barragan, who is also
representing her sister, has claimed there was no kidnap and the
authorities should be dealing with the incident as a mutual assault.
He said: “They were all friends and Miss Munoz willingly got into their car.
“The personal injuries were mutual. My clients were also attacked.”

Speaking soon after the incident, Yeimy’s sister Claudia claimed: “Carolina stole some old photos before we had surgery and the normal things models have done.
“She created fake profiles of us to poke fun at us. We asked
her to stop it but it got worse because then she published a photo of
our mum to ridicule us and that made us furious.
“We met her in the restaurant by chance and took advantage of
the meeting to tell her what we thought of her. We shouted at her and
she got in our car because she didn’t want all the attention with the
noise we were making.
“We never planned to attack her, we wanted to talk to her
that’s all. She threatened us and my sister had a fight with her. It was
a mutual assault.
"Yeimy cut her hair but not as much as Carolina says. She shaved her hair off herself to exaggerate things.
“We never bit her and we never did things like threaten to
throw acid in her face. All she wants to do is damage our reputation.”
Police said in a statement: “A woman accused of attacking the model Carolina Munoz was captured at El Dorado Airport in Bogota.
“The arrest happened as the woman was intending to leave the country on a flight to Miami.
“The case occurred on 31 January 2015 when, according to witnesses, the victim was kidnapped in a restaurant in northern Bogota.
“The woman received electric shocks and was driven in a vehicle
to a remote rural spot where she was submitted to more physical and
psychological attacks such as having her head shaved.
“According to the model’s testimony she had her phone taken off
and was forced to hand over the codes to her social networking sites so
intimate photos of her could be posted on them.
“She was subsequently abandoned naked and without her belongings.
“The National Police has established that two models known as
the Rey sisters could be behind the kidnap and violence against Carolina
Munoz.
“One is the woman that was captured at El Dorado Airport and
the other is being hunted in Colombia and abroad where she could be in
hiding.
“It is considered that the attack could have been a revenge
attack over personal differences linked to the publication some years
ago of photos of the Rey sisters without their consent and before they
underwent cosmetic surgery. The investigation continues.”
