Police investigate doctor after second death

Police are investigating a Sydney doctor after the body of a young Brazilian student was found in his apartment, the second body to be found in the Elizabeth Bay unit this year.

Suellen Dominguez Zaupa died from a suspected cocaine overdose and was found dead in the apartment of the doctor on November 21, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.

Ms Zaupa had travelled from Brazil to Sydney to study hospitality management, and was living in a share house at Crows Nest on Sydney's North Shore.

She wrote on her Facebook profile that "Life looks after those that live it" less than a week before her death.

Last Thursday police charged a 41-year-old neurosurgeon with supplying an indictable quantity of a prohibited drug.

He has since been suspended by the NSW Medical Board and will face Downing Centre Local Court on December 15.

Ms Zaupa is the second young woman to die in the doctor’s home after the body of another woman in her 20s, named by the Daily Telegraph as Victoria McIntyre, was found in the Elizabeth Bay apartment on February 16.

Police have not released details of Ms McIntyre's death, but the NSW Coroner is investigating.

Neighbours told the Herald women dressed as "party girls" would constantly come in and out of Dr Nair's apartment.

Friends close to Ms Zaupa said she was not a prostitute as reported over the weekend.

"The lifestyle she lived was by no means that of a high-class escort and none of us who knew her well believe she would be capable of doing such a thing," Ms Zaupa's flatmate, who did not want to be named, told the newspaper.

She said Ms Zaupa went out to Kings Cross occasionally but would usually spend time closer to home or on Sydney's northern beaches.

Ms Zaupas father is understood to be on the way to Sydney from his home in Brazil.

So how many more girls does this doctor have to kill before some stops him ??? !!! ???

Naturally he WILL get of, and the legal system AGAIN will fail the victims families.

Just like the girl who died in Garry Ablett's drug sex party in a hotel.
