Insert unicode data into MySQL using scripts

I am trying to apply some database scripts that have some Russian text, to a MySQL database, using JiSQL and it always inserts some wierd characters. If I run the same script using MySQL query browser or any other GUI based tool, data is fine. All the tables are setup as UTF-8 to support Russian data.

Is there any option or switch that I have to use to insert Unicode data? Please advise.

thanks

Never mind. I found a solution to the problem by making a slight change to the code. Just this one line change:
reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(inputFileName), "UTF-16"));

and ofcourse connection string settings also...

Since this is not a generic change, I am not sending you the code.

Thanks for that update - I'll add it to the next version.
