Recently, veteran actor, Samir Sabry opened up on Hosny’s Death in his latest interview. He revealed that the iconic actress's cause of death was not suicide but by falling from the balcony of her home in London.

He noted that the report of the British and Egyptian forensic doctors stated that there were no fractures on her body.

Sabry noted that this is an indication that she did not fall from the balcony, as was commonly known and circulated between a wide range of the public.

He stated that the actress could have been killed after she intervened in a quarrel with someone who came to get money from the apartment’s owner, and after she died, her body was left in the street.

Sabry pointed out that he reported in his conducted investigation to solve the mystery of her death, that he knew the owner of the London apartment, and knew that she was doing drugs.

On June 21, 2001, it was announced that Hosny was killed after falling from the balcony of an apartment on the sixth floor of the Stuart Tower building, in London.

Her death sparked a controversy that has not been subsided yet, as there are doubts about her being murder and not her suicide as was previously mentioned by the British police back then.
