Man dies on yacht off St Julian's

The Police Force and the Maltese army were called in to recover the body of a man from a yacht, out at sea off St Julian's.

The Police's communications office has confirmed that the man was a foreigner but it could not say whether he was the owner of the yacht or whether any other persons were present on the yacht or at the time of death.

The police do not suspect foul play.

Contrary to reports in the media, sources speaking to MaltaToday said that this second death was not connected to the murder of Eleanor Mangion Walker, the mother found dead in Qormi last night. A search is currently ongoing for her estranged partner.
