Initial investigations suggest the accident was the result of a collision between a BMW 1 Series car, driven by a 22-year-old man from St Paul’s Bay, and a Honda motorcycle driven by the victim.

A medical team administered first aid on the motorcyclist on the scene of the accident. The motorcyclist was then taken to Mater Dei Hospital by ambulance, where he was certified dead soon after.

Kosev was 27 years old. A Maltese-Bulgarian national, he had spent three years working as the videographer on the television programme Xtra and cooking show Gourmet Challenge.

Magistrate Ian Farrugia is leading an inquiry. 

Police investigations are ongoing.
