The woman at the centre of a case in which MI5 has admitted giving false evidence to three courts says she wants the service to give her a public apology.
Beth was attacked with a machete by her former partner, a neo-Nazi misogynist who used his MI5 role to coercively control her.
We revealed on Wednesday that MI5 gave false evidence to three courts over its handling of the man - a paid informant known only as agent X.
MI5 has now issued an "unreserved apology" describing what happened as a "serious error" - adding it took full responsibility.
But speaking for the first time since then, Beth - not her real name - says: "Where's my apology?"
She believes she only matters to MI5 because she is "kicking up a fuss" by taking a legal case against the service and "throwing a spotlight on the way that they behave".
"But otherwise, if I were to just go quietly away, they'd never think about me again," she told the BBC.
