The stunning girlfriend who was 'dragged to her death by jealous boyfriend' who was 'hurled' from Sydney balcony

Lisa Harnum, above, died after falling from the 15th floor of an apartment in Sydney, Australia in 2011.

This is the stunning girlfriend who fell 15 stories to her death, moments after being filmed grappling with her 'controlling and abusive' fiancé

Lisa Harnum was allegedly heard yelling, 'please help me, God help me' as she fought for her life on the balcony of the flat she shared with Simon Gittany in Sydney, Australia, on the night of July 30 2011.

But nobody came. Moments later she was lying dead, her body 150-feet down on the footpath below.

And today it was revealed the 30-year-old's terrifying last moments were captured on the very pin-hole camera Gittany set up to spy on her every move.
Gittany, 37, has pleaded not guilty to murdering his Canadian-born fiancée claiming he was trying to save her from suicide before she fell.

A neighbour, however, claims he saw a topless man 'fist-pumping' on the terrace after something had gone over the edge.


Another witness walking past The Hyde apartment block in the heart of the city told police he saw a topless man holding what appeared to be black luggage horizontally over the balcony before it fell to earth.

'Of course, it was not a piece of luggage, it was Miss Harnum wearing black clothing,' Crown prosecutor Mark Tedeschi QC said today at Gittany's murder trial.

Gittany was so jealous, Mr Tedeschi claimed, that he had banned her from seeing friends, forbade her from taking a job as a hairdresser and even hired a personal trainer to come to their home so she wouldn't go to the gym where he thought she would be ogled by other men.

Terror: His hand clamped over her mouth to stifle her 'bone-chilling' screams for help, a shirtless Simon Gittany wrestles fiancee Lisa Harnam - minutes before she plunged 15-storeys to her death. The footage was captured on a pin-hole camera that he set up in the flat to spy on her

Describing Gittany as 'controlling and abusive', Tedeschi said he made her become Catholic, do her hair and dress exactly how he told her.

He believed it was her function in life to submit to his will as the male in the relationship,' Mr Tedeschi said.
