A Ukrainian OnlyFans model found seriously injured in Dubai on the side of the road is now feared to have been ‘tortured by Russians’, after friends feared she had been ‘sold into sex slavery.’
Maria Kovalchuk, 20, went into a coma and suffered horrific injuries including a broken spine and limbs after she was discovered on a roadside on March 19 after having ‘fallen from a height’.
The prominent adult content creator had been due at a party but mysteriously vanished.
Her friends expressed fears she had been kidnapped into ‘sexual slavery’ before she was found 10 days later.
Now a source close to the Ukrainian model has insisted that Maria was abused by unidentified Russians in the United Arab Emirates before being found.
The source also denied multiple reports that Maria had left Dubai and was recovering in Ukraine.
‘We are in Dubai,’ said the source.
‘And it was Russian citizens who tortured Maria.

Media reports say Maria’s friends had told her mother she was staying with two men and was cancelling a planned trip to Thailand on March 11
‘UAE citizens have nothing to do with it. That’s all I can say for now.’
The source ‘hoped’ local police were investigating the ‘Russians’ who ‘tortured’ her, and also condemned ‘false’ reporting surrounding the case.
The new account comes after multiple Ukrainian and Russian reports said Maria had been abused after attending a party in Dubai.
Ukrainian news outlet 24TV said another model who had ‘managed to escape from the fateful party’ claimed it was a ‘trap’.
‘Before the party and the trip to the villa, women were forced to sign a contract, according to the terms of which they had to simply accompany wealthy men,’ the local outlet reported.
‘However, in reality, women were raped, beaten and mistreated.’
The source – named as Ksenia – said: ‘Loud screams were constantly heard from closed rooms.’
OnlyFans model, Dubai-based Alyona Omovich told Ukrainian outlet Obozrevatel: ‘You can tell from her appearance that she was involved in something horrific. And that horror, apparently, is what led to her being so badly broken.’

She revealed a circuit of degrading ‘elite parties’ where foreign models and influencers are ‘promised large sums —tens of thousands of dollars — in exchange for actions that border on violence, humiliation, and even physical mutilation’.
Maria is said to be ‘getting better’ but continues to receive treatment following her horrific ordeal.
