In a statement on her personal page, beauty Kateryna Bilyk wrote: "I, Kateryna Bilyk, unfortunately have to withdraw from the Miss Grand International pageant due to my health being seriously affected by the conditions of the event.
For 2 weeks, I was required to participate in activities from 8am to 11pm or midnight. Some days, I had to work from 3am to 11pm despite having a fever of 37.5⁰C to 38.2⁰C.
My condition was recorded by a private doctor in Pattaya (Thailand) and the doctor at the Wyndham Jomtien Pattaya hotel also recorded my blood pressure as dangerously high."

The beauty wrote in her letter that she was given a pill of unknown origin by Miss Grand staff to use.
"Although the Miss Grand Organization claims to be contractually responsible for my health, they have caused significant harm to my physical and mental health.
They did not call a doctor when I fainted and forced me to continue working with a fever of 38.5⁰C and blood pressure of 151/90. In addition, the organizers confiscated my passport for 3 days in Cambodia, illegally restricting my freedom of movement," the beauty added.

"I have the right to file a lawsuit and demand financial compensation," she wrote at the end of her letter. According to the latest update, Bilyk has just returned to Ukraine and said she has hired a lawyer.
The Miss Grand Organizing Committee and Mr. Nawat (President of the Miss Grand Organization) have not yet commented on the above accusation.
