Ghislaine Maxwell's US jail conditions 'are torture' - brother
The way British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell is being treated in a New York jail is "degrading" and "amounts to torture", her brother has told the BBC.
Ian Maxwell said she was being held under constant surveillance in a 6x9ft (1.8x2.7m) cell with no natural light, and the food was "basically inedible".
Ms Maxwell is accused of helping the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein groom young girls, which she denies.
She is currently seeking bail, ahead of her trial which is due in July.
Prison officials have not commented on her conditions.
Ms Maxwell, 59, who also has US and French citizenship, has been in jail in Brooklyn since she was arrested last July at her secluded mansion in the state of New Hampshire.
Her two earlier applications for bail were unsuccessful.
On Wednesday, Gloria Allred, a lawyer representing the alleged victims, told the BBC that bail should be "out of the question" as it "would be very upsetting to the victims".
Federal prosecutors, meanwhile, said Ms Maxwell's offer to renounce her UK and French citizenships as part of her bid for bail was "little more than window dressing".
In a letter released on Wednesday, the three prosecutors said Ms Maxwell remained a "plain risk of flight".
Epstein took his own life in prison in 2019.
What did Ian Maxwell say?
Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme on Wednesday, Mr Maxwell said his sister had now been held "in effective isolation" for nearly 250 days.
He said her cell had only a concrete bed and a toilet.
"There is no natural light, she is under 24-hour round-the-clock surveillance with 10 cameras, including one that moves and tracks her movements," Mr Maxwell said.
The water she was being given was "brown", he said, adding that the food was "highly microwaveable... and basically inedible".
