A Belarusian model and self-styled sex instructor who claimed to have evidence of Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election said Saturday that she apologizes to a Russian tycoon for the claim and won’t say more about the matter.
Anastasia Vashukevich made the statement in a Moscow court considering whether to keep her in jail as she faces charges. The court extended her detention for three more days.
Vashukevich’s statement appears to head off any chance of her speaking to U.S. investigators looking into "collusion" between Russia and President Donald Trump.
Vashukevich, who goes by the name Nastya Rybka on social media, was arrested last February on prostitution charges. She and several others were arrested in connection with a "sex training seminar" they were holding.
After her arrest she claimed she had audio tapes of Russian tycoon Oleg Deripaska, who is close to President Vladimir Putin, talking about interference in the U.S. election.
She shot to world attention when a Russian opposition leader published an "investigation" based on her social media posts that suggested corrupt links between Deripaska and Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Prikhodko.
