But the monkey kept attacking her even as she was pulled away from the primate by her mother.
"The parents came running to the screams and with difficulty freed their daughter from the animal’s clutches,” said one report.
The monkey had escaped from a ‘pet zoo’ belonging to a millionaire in a next door property and scaled the fence.
It then attacked Pauline who was on a stepladder close to a garden swimming pool.

The girl’s parents are friends of the owner of the house where the attack took place.
They had given the family refuge from the war started in February by Vladimir Putin.
