Detectives Question George Michael's Lover Amid Fears The Singer Was Killed With Drugs

Detectives have questioned George Michael's lover Fadi Fawaz as it emerged that a major crimes unit has taken over the inquiry amid fears he died of drugs overdose.


Michael, 53, passed away in his bed at home in Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire on Christmas Day, apparently from heart failure.

Mr Fawaz has now been interviewed by police about what he knows about Michael's final hours.

The investigation has been taken over by the Thames Valley Police Major Crime Unit.


Last week a post-mortem examination proved 'inconclusive' but the results of toxicology tests could shed new light on the star's death.

Detectives fear he may have been killed by a drugs overdose.
