A glamorous model has been found dead with adhesive tape sealing her lips in mysterious circumstances.

Raiza Joselin Martínez Copa, better known online as La Chocolatita, was discovered lying motionless on the floor of a stranger’s home.

Thick adhesive tape completely covered her mouth when officers arrived at the property in Lima, Peru, on Thursday (23 Jul).

Empty beer cans lay scattered around her body at the property.

Officers rushed to the scene after an emergency call from a worried mother who owns the home.

She reported that her adult son had spent the entire night drinking heavily with the model.

Police found the man still inside the property, calmly preparing breakfast in the kitchen.

He was immediately arrested and is being treated as the prime suspect.

Possible illegal drugs were also spotted during the initial search of the house.

Detectives are working to establish exactly what happened during those final hours.

The 34-year-old content creator had built a solid following with sensual TikTok videos and exclusive adult material on OnlyFans.

She shot to wider fame months earlier after being linked to married footballer Pedro Aquino.

Secret cameras captured the Alianza Lima star slipping into her home in the early hours.

His wife later confirmed their marriage was over following the scandal.

Messages between the pair first started late last year through social media.

Those chats quickly turned more personal and explicit over the following weeks.

She later told investigators the player repeatedly asked her for intimate photographs.

Raiza described herself online as a model, video creator and hostess.

She had previously worked as the face of lingerie brands and appeared in music videos.

Her OnlyFans profile invited paying fans into her private world with fresh photos and clips twice a week.

Shocked friends and online followers have begun posting tributes since the news broke.

Television presenter Magaly Medina interrupted her live show to reveal the details, as reported by Need To Know.

The authorities are still waiting for the results of an autopsy and forensic results.

The suspect remains in police custody as the investigation continues.
