LAGOS AUGUST 31ST (NEWSRANGERS)-An aspiring lawyer and beloved taekwondo world champion has tragically been found dead at 19 years old.
Isabelle Sava, a black belt and law student at Queen Mary University in Mile End, East London, was tragically found dead this week. She is believed to have died from cardiac arrest in her sleep.
Emergency services found her unconscious in her bed. They attempted to resuscitate her, but their efforts failed. Tragically she was pronounced dead.
Isabelle Sava was the only child of parents Laura and Ovi Sava. A family friend, Adriana Agache, has set up a fundraising page for the family.
Fundraiser set up for the family
“It is with an incredibly heavy heart that I am creating this fundraiser on behalf of my dear friends, Laura and Ovi Sava, who are facing every parent’s worst nightmare – the sudden and unimaginable loss of their beautiful and only daughter, Isabelle, at just 19 years old. Isabelle passed away completely unexpectedly in her sleep after suffering a cardiac arrest. Emergency services, including ambulance and air ambulance teams, fought desperately to resuscitate her and save her life. Tragically, despite everything they did, Isabelle could not be saved. There are simply no words for a loss like this. Nineteen years was nowhere near enough. A beautiful young woman with an extraordinary future Isabelle had her whole life ahead of her,” the fundraiser read.
“She was preparing to begin her second year studying LLB Law at Queen Mary University of London, a Russell Group university, and was working towards her dream of becoming a commercial lawyer. Isabelle wasn’t someone who simply dreamed about her future. Even at 19, she was already working incredibly hard to build it. She immersed herself in university life and the legal world. She was involved with the Law Society, Commercial Awareness Society and Student Advancement Society, and was also a Student Blog Writer for the Queen Mary Legal Advice Centre. Her passion for law was already becoming evident in her work. In 2026, a legal article written by Isabelle was published by the Queen Mary Legal Advice Centre – a remarkable achievement for someone still at the very beginning of her university journey. She actively sought opportunities to learn, gain legal experience and prepare herself for the career she wanted.”
An investigation into her passing is underway.
May she rest in peace.
