A woman who claimed to be the victim of rape in an alleyway in Sydney’s Kings Cross in 2013 has waived her right to anonymity, saying “I am that girl”.

She opened up to the media as this week marks five years since the incident occurred.

On May 12, 2013, Mullins lost her virginity to former private school boy Luke Lazarus in an alleyway outside his father’s nightclub.

The then 18-year-old says she did not give consent for Lazarus to have sex with her.

“No-one dreams of their first time being in an alleyway with someone whose name they can’t even remember. No-one wants that,” she told the program.

“I've spent far too long feeling embarrassed and ashamed. Those awful things happened to me. I am that girl.”

Lazarus was initially found guilty of the single count of sexual intercourse without consent in 2015 and jailed for at least three years.

He was released after 11 months when the Court of Criminal Appeal quashed the conviction and ordered a re-trial.

In May last year, a judge found that Lazarus was not guilty of rape because Mullins “did not say stop or no”.

"Whether or not she consented is but one matter. Whether or not the accused knew that she was not consenting is another,” the judge said.

At the time, Mullins told the court she met Lazarus on the dancefloor of the venue and they walked out to a gravel laneway.

“We started kissing for a little while, but then I wanted to leave, so I stopped and said I need to go back to my friend,” she told the court.

She also told the court he became "more aggressive and said get down on your hands and knees".

"I was scared and just did what I was told.”
