Oksana Grigorieva: Mel Gibson is not paying child support for our nine-month-old daughter, Lucia

It's payback time.
Mel Gibson's ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva tells London's Daily Mail that the actor is not paying child support for their nine-month-old daughter.
The Russian musician claims she has been forced to "live on credit cards" and borrow money from friends to support baby Lucia.
"He is not paying me a penny. Nothing," she told the U.K. newspaper. "I was trying to keep things dignified and be respectful to the father of my daughter, but what he is doing is cruelty."
Gibson -- who is reportedly worth $900 million -- split from Grigorieva two months ago.
The actor parted ways with his wife of 28 years, Robyn, after he was photographed kissing the 40-year-old musician while vacationing in Costa Rica.
Despite originally telling the press their break-up was amicable, Grigorieva now says she dropped the "Lethal Weapon" star after they had been together for three years.
"He didn’t dump me, I left him," she told the Daily Mail. "I rescued my children and myself."
Last Monday, Grigorieva filed a restraining order against Gibson claiming he had been violent towards her in January. The judge reportedly issued an order prohibiting the 54-year-old actor from contacting his ex.
But the couple's legal battle soon appeared to turn into a case of tit for tat.
RadarOnline.com reported on Friday that Gibson had filed his own restraining order against Grigorieva.
His ex tells the Daily Mail that this is false.
"The truth will come out eventually," Grigorieva told the the newspaper. "There are custody issues. What is happening to me is not fair."
Besides Lucia, Gibson has seven older children with his ex-wife, Robyn.
Grigorieva also has a 13-year-old son with actor Timothy Dalton.
