Fiona Parry’s daughter Eloise died after mistakenly taking an overdose of the deadly pills that the Turk was selling.

The mother of a student who died after accidentally overdosing on diet pills has told of the moment she confronted a dealer of the drugs.

But when she revealed her true identity, he apologised and said he would stop selling the pills.

Mrs Parry, 51, said yesterday: ‘This man, like all the other traders, was fully aware that what he was doing was illegal.
