Summer Gregg, who was aged just 17 at the time of the attack, was so afraid she was considered jumping out of an eighth floor flat window to escape her attackers.

“I didn’t think I was going to make it out of the flat alive, and thought maybe jumping out of the window would either have killed or saved me - but at that point I began to think it was my only way out,” she said.
