Cellar girl reveals her 3,096-day abduction rape and naked slavery horrors

LONDON - Austrian television host Natascha Kampusch, who is known for her abduction at the age of 10, will be releasing her autobiography detailing the ordeal she went through at the hands of her kidnapper.

Kampusch, 22, who had been kidnapped by Wolfgang Priklopil, will publish her book, titled ‘3,096 Days’ in reference to the amount of time she was held captive, on September 8.

In the book, which will reportedly earn her 1 million pounds, she tells of how she was beaten up to 200 times a week, chained to her captor while they slept together in his bed, and worked half-naked as a domestic slave.

“I now feel strong enough to tell the full story of my abduction,” the Telegraph quoted her as saying.

She writes that Priklopil, who killed himself when she escaped, forced her to refer to him as “My Lord” or “Maestro”, and told her “You’re no longer Natascha. Now you belong to me”.

She claims that she was beaten so badly by Priklopil that he broke her bones, and that when she cried because of the pain, he would grab her by the throat and push her head underwater squeezing her windpipe.

She also wrote about the trauma of lacking human contact and how she asked him to embrace her.

“Yet I was still a child, and I needed the consolation of touch. So, after a few months underground, I asked my kidnapper to embrace me,” she wrote.

“It was difficult. I went into a claustrophobic panic when he held me too tight.

“After several attempts, though, we managed to find a way - not too close, not too tight, and yet tight enough so that I could imagine feeling a loving, caring touch,” she stated.

The book also reveals how she was forced to share Priklopil’s bed, and it had nothing to do with sex, as all the man wanted was something to cuddle.

She also reveals how the despair she felt made her want to kill herself, and she attempted suicide several times.

The book’s publication comes at an embarrassing time for the Austrian authorities, as an MP has claimed that police missed tip-offs that could have prevented her imprisonment. (ANI)
