She was being treated for a fractured left thigh, right ankle, dislocated pelvis and other injuries.
She was officially discharged in July but could not raise some close to Sh2 million that the hospital billed her.
Ms Collins says that her family back in Britain is not able to raise the money to pay the bill.
A British woman who is detained at the Nairobi Women’s Hospital after failing to raise more than Sh3 million to secure her discharge is pleading for help to offset the bill.
Tinu Amy Collins, 25, from Manchester, was being treated for a fractured left thigh, right ankle, dislocated pelvis and other injuries occasioned by what she insists was an accident and not a deliberate shove off the balcony by her boyfriend as claimed by media.
