Without news, a family member of the septuagenarian reported the facts after discovering the body, rue de la Sposata, in the city center, in the middle of the morning.

A homicide investigation was opened by the Ajaccio prosecutor's office and entrusted to the judicial police.

The victim, a resident of Ajaccio, was only known to the justice services for an old minor offense which dates back to the 2000s, said the prosecution.
