The sister of the late American IG model, Tyger Booty, wants her autopsy to be done in the US saying they doubt the integrity of Ghanaian health officials.
In an interview with Asaase Radio's Kwaku Nhyira-Addo, Julie Williams said the family suspect foul play, stressing the deceased is not into drugs.
According to her, “people have told us Ghanaian officials can be very corrupt”, so they would kick against any attempt to have local doctors perform the autopsy.
“We don’t trust Ghana health authorities will do a good job, so we want the autopsy done in the United States. Unfortunately, none of us is from there [Ghana], and we’re not sure what will happen.”
“We would rather have it done in the states where we can trust the system because we don’t know anybody in Ghana. Everybody we talk to believes that something else is going on,” Booty’s sister said.
After spending a few weeks in the country, the late US IG model, known in real life as Dasani Williams, was reported dead in a room at the Rayporsh Hotel in Abelenkpe, Accra.
The family triggered a missing person alert when they hadn’t heard from Dasani for a few days leading to the FBI getting involved and the US Embassy in Accra verifying the body.
Circumstances surrounding her death are still unclear, but the family spokesperson stressed that unlike the rumours making rounds, “she [Tyger Booty] does not do drugs, and my sister doesn’t drink.”
Meanwhile, the Tesano Police say they have investigated the case and forwarded a report to the Police headquarters.
The Police have, however, assured that they will provide an update on the issue to the public when they gather enough details.
The United States embassy has also pledged to support the family with consular services.
