London in June 2017.The inquest into the Kazakh national's death is ongoing, and today a coroner heard that the Regent's University student was a “smiley, cheerful, happy person," when she wasn't in a "toxic" relationship with fellow student Alessio Bianchi.A toxicology report found Damilya had a high level of Alprazolam, a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety, and a low level of alcohol in her system when she died.Westminster Coroner's Court heard Damilya was studying a bachelor's degree in Global Management whilst in London.
Giving evidence this morning, her sister Ainel Jussipaliyeva said Damilya said London was "her place," but added that her strained relationship with Saudi Arabian-born Italian Bianchi affected her.Ainel said: "Damilya was a very cheerful, very happy person and had lots of friends around, especially before she started to study in London.“She had good relationships with her family.“Since she was born I guess she was the sunshine in our family.
And we had a very good relationship, as sisters we were very close. She was a very smiley person all the time. She was the one person who was making us smile, for example, my parents or me.“She was an ambitious person so her plan was to finish university and to stay in London to find a job.
When she arrived in London she told me that was her place - that she finally found her place and where she wanted to be.”She told the court she believed Damilya and Bianchi’s relationship was described as “toxic” and when Damilya split with him in March 2017 she seemed happier.However, by May of that year, she was back with Bianchi, which the sisters argued about on WhatsApp.
