Ivana Smit was at the Kuala Lumpur condo of American Alexander Amado Johnson, 45, cryptocurrency trader and co-founder of the company Everus World, and his Indonesian wife, Luna, just hours before her naked and bruised body was found on a sixth-floor balcony there last Thursday, having fallen 14 floors
Luna Johnson, said to be in her 30s, is a model who befriended 19-year-old Smit
Kuala Lumpur cops said the teen had been intoxicated when she fell, blood test also revealed traces of ecstasy and alcohol

Police said the Ivana Smit had been intoxicated when she fell and that her blood test revealed traces of ecstasy and alcohol
“Her clothes have been found, but her shoes and underwear haven’t. The police haven’t looked at her mobile phones,” said her uncle Fred Agenjo.
Smit reportedly had sent her boyfriend a selfie and message Thursday morning telling him she was at an American couple’s apartment after a night out.
Her dad said he’d heard rumors that the couple — a wealthy “cryptocurrency trader” and his Kazakhstani wife — were swingers who frequently brought young models home to party.
“Drugs and such sex parties are from a world that is not so much Ivana’s,” he said.
But police said the teen had been intoxicated when she fell and that her blood test revealed traces of ecstasy and alcohol.
Authorities estimate her naked body was found at least 5 hours after her fall. Local paper, NL Times reported. that Ivana called her boyfriend around 7:25 a.m. on Thursday and told him that she was with an American couple after a night out.
Her naked body was found around 3:00 p.m., but officials told local outlets she’d fallen hours earlier at 10 a.m.
Alexander Johnson, who previously worked in Georgia and Florida, is the founder of Everus World, a cryptocurrency company based in Kuala Lumpur. Friends of Ivana’s say she modeled with Luna, who is believed to be around 30, and that this is how they met.
Before returning to their apartment at 5am on December 6, Ivana’s friends said she had been out drinking with the Johnsons in Bangsar, a city 20 miles away from their apartment.
The two women were pictured together in a selfie Ivana sent to her boyfriend Lukas Kramer two-and-a-half hours before police say she died.
Howver, questioned after the teenager’s body was found, the couple reportedly told police they did not know what happened to her.

But her family doubts that the explanation stated by authorities in the Malaysian capital.
Police said there were “no criminal elements” to the death but Ivana’s devastated father along with his wife and son have now arrived in the country and contacted Interpol to demand an investigation.
Ivana’s grandfather Hendrik Smit, who has lived in Penang, Malaysia, for more than twenty years and raised Ivana as a child there, said today: “We cannot believe she fell from level 20 and the body was found at level 6.”
Marcel Smit does not believe his daughter’s fall was an accident. there are bruises on her neck that show someone grabbed her there, Smit said.
The police told him that she fell around 10:00 a.m. “Very strange that the American couple did nothing from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Ivana’s belongings were still in their apartment. The police tell me that the statements of the Americans are the same. Yes, of course: they had seven hours to coordinate them. My daughter can no longer contradict them,” her father said.
Smit added that the neighbors heard shouting and arguments in the American couple’s room. “The police are doing nothing with this information and only want to close the case quickly”, he said to the newspaper. He believes his daughter was pushed. “We want justice”, he said.

Her hosts told officials the husband slept through the ordeal and that his wife was out taking their son to school.
According to Ivana’s family, alcohol and ecstasy have allegedly been found in the blood of his daughter and the American couple, who have not been named.
The family say the investigation is going nowhere and they have contacted Interpol.
“Her clothes have been found, but her shoes and underwear haven’t. The police haven’t looked at her mobile phones,” said her uncle Fred Agenjo.

Agenjo insists: “Those are not drugs that you’re going to sleep on.
“There are so many questions. Her clothes have been found, but her shoes and underwear are not.
“The police do not look at her mobile phone. The police do not want to say whether the drugs were taken when they were alive. The police also do not want to say whether traces of sexual intercourse have been found. We want a full investigation.”
“We want a thorough investigation. If it turns out it was an accident or a reckless act by Ivana, we can live with that,” Agenjo said. Ivana had first moved to Malaysia 13 years ago and lived with her grandfather Hendrik Smit. The young model was the second runner-up in Malaysia Supermodel Search 2014 and a leading model in the country.
She had recently walked in fashion shows for brands Chanel and Triumph.
The Dutch embassy in Malaysia has requested that the European police service Interpol look into the death of 19-year-old Ivana Smit in Kuala Lumpur last week.
