Widow of bouncer killed at restaurant of former TOWIE star plunges to her death in Malaga

The 33-year-old widow of bouncer Jose Rafael Pisani Pardo, who died in April following a brawl outside former ‘The Only Way is Essex’ star Elliott Wright’s restaurant on the Costa del Sol, died on Saturday October 14 when she fell from the fifth-floor balcony of her Fuengirola home.

A 36-year-old British man, already known to police, has been arrested and brought in for questioning in relation to her death, although it’s still unclear whether he was even at the property at the time.

According to official sources, Chilean-born Romina Acuna called the emergency services hours before her fall to report an assault.

She was taken to hospital for treatment but decided against pressing charges. However, several other partners have lodged formal domestic violence complaints against the suspect in the past.

Romina and Venezuelan-born Mr Pisani Pardo were married just five months before the doorman died on April 16 after hitting his head on the ground when trying to break up a fight at Wright’s eatery ‘Olivia’s’. After his death, his widow told police he had phoned her hours before saying he was “frightened” because there were so many drunk customers that night.

A manhunt was launched to track down the victim’s attacker and 24 hours later, a 32-year-old UK national was arrested. Incredibly, the suspect was one of six Brits collared in February and questioned about the contract killing of an Irishman near Marbella. He was out on bail when Mr Pardo was attacked.

Last month, the same man, once again on bail, was arrested for the third time when a gun was found in his car at a police checkpoint in Marbella.
