Her death certificate led the cause of death as cerebral edema resulting from a respiratory illness. However, her father, Carlos Arellano, inss the cosmetic surgery is to blame. “Her death certificate falsely stated ‘illness’ as the cause of death in an attempt to cover up the truth,” Carlos said. The father claimed he was unaware of his daughter’s surgery until her funeral, when he noticed scars and breast implants. He further raised doubts about the speed with which officials issued her death certificate. “They gave it to us right away. I don’t know how they did it so quickly,” he said. Carlos has since filed a formal complaint, demanding accountability. “I demand that all those responsible be investigated,” he said. Authorities in Mexico have confirmed they are probing Paloma’s death and the circumstances surrounding the alleged operation. It remains unclear where or under what conditions the procedure was carried out.
