Ellul’s body was found in a home in Triq Dun Franġisk Mizzi, Għajnsielem, at around noon on Saturday. However, following an autopsy, the death is now being treated as a homicide, with a man set to be charged with her murder today at 1.30pm.
Malta has reacted in shock to the news, with some questioning whether this is another case of femicide in Malta in 2022.
