“We don’t
really know what went wrong, we only know what is in reports in the
media.” Anietie said He also said that the family is making preparations
to bring her body home. According to the Daily Mail, Joy, who relocated
to the UK from Nigeria in 2007 and lives with her mother in Thamesmead,

Doctor
Sompob Sansiri, 51, is lead away by police after Miss Williams died at
his clinic Doctor Sompob Sansiri, 51, is lead away by police after Miss
Williams died at his clinic She initially visitied to the SP clinic,
which she found on the internet, on October 14 to have the operation
which she hoped would give her a bigger, fuller bottom.
A few
days later her wounds became infected and she returned to have
corrective surgery to remove the silicon implants. But she was found
dead on the operating table with a three inch-long stitched incision on
her tail bone after medical staff found they were unable to resuscitate
her.
Thai
officials investigating her death believe her operation had been delayed
to ensure Miss Williams had not eaten anything beforehand and that as a
result the operation began after the clinic’s legal closing time of
7pm.
It is
believed Miss Williams had long struggled with her self-esteem and been
bullied at school before choosing to undergo an operation on her nose to
improve her looks.

since 1998, but he is now facing ten years behind bars Doctor Sompob

While in
Bangkok she had been staying at the £11-a-night Vabua Asotel hotel which
is used by the clinic as accommodation for its patients. The doctor who
carried out the procedure, Sompob Sansiri, 51, was later arrested and
accused of negligence after it was found that he had been carrying out
night-time surgery without a licence. He has now been charged with
recklessness causing death and could face 10 years in jail if found
guilty. Photo: Nigerian Girl Dies after FailedButt Enlargement Surgery

The
clinic has been closed for 60 days while investigations are carried out.
Thailand is a world-leader in cosmetic surgery tourism with many
companies offering procedures at discounts of up to 60 per cent. The
industry earned the country £2.68billion in 2013 alone.
One of
Joy’s friend who spoke with UK Telegraph said she had suffered bullying
and low self esteem issues while they were in school and that she was
never happy with herself.
“She was a
really, really nice girl. She was very friendly and caring. She was
always helping her mum with her brothers. She was a very bright girl and
did well at school. She was a bit shy and quiet and I knew in later
years there was something wrong and upsetting her.
At school
she had been bullied over her appearance and she went for surgery on
her nose and face. Last time I saw her it was obvious she had had
cosmetic surgery. She was fine before, she didn’t need to. She was fine
the way she was but she just wasn’t happy. She had no self esteem and I
guess she felt she needed to do it. She was just never happy with
herself.”
Police are now waiting for the postmortem result which would determine if the doctor will be charged for medical negligence.
