Overview

• Georgia Harrison, 32, was arrested in Antalya on May 7 after smashing a Lexia Hotel shower screen during a drunken celebration
• A Turkish court barred her from leaving the country until she pays the full £15,000 repair cost she cannot cover
• The British Embassy said it cannot lift her travel ban and Harrison estimates she has spent about £7,000 on living expenses while detained
• In desperation to return to her 12-year-old daughter, she attempted alternate flights and a boat to Greece but was stopped at passport controls
• Her lawyer’s offer to settle for £3,000, backed by a survey valuing the damage at £1,000, was refused by the hotel
