A DRUG fixer claims he helped Amy Winehouse buy $1750 of crack cocaine and heroin the night before she died.

Tony Azzopardi, who is due to be re-interviewed by police today, alleged he helped the late singer buy the Class A narcotics in the early hours of July 23rd - the same day she was found dead in her London home.

The 56-year-old, who was introduced to the tragic star by her ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil, claimed he wanted her family to 'know the truth about what happened'.

Azzopardi told the Daily Mirror he bumped into the singer in a black cab near The Eagle pub around 11:30pm on July 22nd.

Several people had previously claimed to have seen Amy outside the Good Mixer bar in Camden that night.

Azzopardi claims Amy asked him to help her buy some drugs and they rode together in the taxi to West Hampstead, where he made a phonecall to a local dealer.


A short time later, he alleges the singer handed over $1750 (AUD) for half an ounce each of crack and heroin.

He claims he last saw her when she dropped him off in Archway, North London before heading back to her Camden home.

Hours later, Amy's lifeless body was found by her bodyguard around 4pm.
