MANCHESTER, England, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Model and former "Face of Asia" winner Sahar Daftary fell to her death from the 12th floor of an apartment building in England, police say.
"Witnesses have said there was no shouting or ranting -- just a single scream. It is being looked at as either suicide or a horrible accident," a police source told The Daily Mail.
The 24-year-old model died during the weekend after falling 150 feet at the building where she had gone to pick up her belongings from an apartment she shared with her ex-boyfriend, a property developer who hasn't been named to the media, the newspaper reported.
The model's former beau reportedly was arrested and interviewed by police, then released on bail.
"We are all shocked and devastated. Sahar was very beautiful -- she loved life and she was always the center of the party," Daftary's friend, Afrah Sami, told The Daily Mail. "She met (the boyfriend) in Manchester and they were very happy. Then she won the 'Face of Asia' competition and got several big contracts. She seemed to have the world at her feet. But she discovered that he was married and became very unhappy. The stress changed her and she had stopped eating properly. When she came up on Saturday she was very distracted and preoccupied with collecting her things from the apartment, but he didn't want to see her."
