Senior investigating officer, Detective Chief Inspector Adam Pendlebury, said: “As with any sudden death, our job is to carry out a thorough assessment to ensure there are no suspicious circumstances which could indicate foul play.

“We will always act with an abundance of caution to ensure any potential evidence of criminality is captured, to secure charges where this is found, and to get the answers those left behind need and want.

“In Ewa’s case I can confirm the evidence we have examined did not support her death as a homicide, which has now been further confirmed by the results of the forensic post-mortem and toxicology reports.

“Our findings have been explained to Ewa’s family and our thoughts remain firmly with her loved ones and all who knew her as they mourn her loss.”

The arrested man has now been released from his bail with no further action and a file is being prepared for the coroner.
