She worked at Glasgow's Central Station and was a former pupil of Knightswood Secondary School. Speaking to Glasgow Live, Samyra's partner James Aitken said: "She (Samyra) completely broke down. Their step-dad and little brother arrived at the same time as me and they were absolutely distraught, screaming and wailing - we all were. It's still a massive shock to us and unbelievable. We are waiting to find out what has happened. "The family were all really close and the twins did everything together. She loved life and was so happy. She was such a good aunt to the kids, she loved them." James has launched a GoFundMe page in the hopes of repatriating Samorine back to her home country of Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa. So far, more than £6,500 has been raised. The fundraiser reads: "We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts to ask for your support.
