Paul Warren is still engaged in a battle to find the truth about his daughter’s death six years after her passing, and he wants the federal government to intervene.
Elly Warren, a 20-year-old from Melbourne, was discovered dead in Mozambique in November 2016 while performing volunteer work. No one has ever been charged.
“It is very frustrating. Mr. Warren stated on Thursday, “It’s simply ridiculous.”
Wednesday, he and his supporters gathered on the steps of parliament to demand that the federal government investigate the issue.
In November 2016, Elly Warren (pictured) was discovered dead in Mozambique, two days before she was scheduled to return to Australia.
Ms. Warren’s body was discovered face down in front of a public restroom in the little coastal town of Tofo two days before she was scheduled to return home.
She had suffocated to death after breathing sand, and her mouth and neck were covered in cuts and bruises.
Despite the evidence, Mozambican police have not filed charges, and the 2020-ordered Victorian Coroners Court investigation into Elly’s death has yet to reach a conclusion.
‘You never get over something like this,’ her dad replied.
“It’s absurd that this has gone on for so long. Elly was murdered without a doubt,’ stated Mr. Warren.
The autopsy report from Mozambique indicates that this was a violent death and a homicide, according to two pathologists.
Mr. Warren stated on the Today show on Channel 9 that the Mozambican government covered up Elly’s murder.
A representative for the Coroners Court informed Daily Mail Australia, “The death of Elly Warren is the subject of an active coronial investigation.”
Due to the current investigation, no more comment can be given at this time.
Six years ago, Paul Warren was photographed wearing the shirt his daughter was wearing when her body was discovered.

Mr. Warren stated that he is requesting an investigation into his daughter’s murder due to a perceived lack of progress in the investigation.
They should feel shame for their actions. The worst thing is not having these answers,’ he said.
“The Mozambique authorities stated that there were no evidence of struggle at the crime scene, and this is Elly’s top,” Mr. Warren told Channel 9, removing his own shirt to reveal the shirt his daughter was wearing when she died.
‘Look at it. It is completely destroyed,’ he remarked.

Mr. Warren requests that Attorney General Mark Dreyfus examine the 2016 death of his daughter in Africa.
In 2016, Elly Warren’s (pictured) body was discovered in Mozambique, but no one has ever been charged with her murder.
She has blunt-force damage to the face, and her top has been torn apart. Her body was transferred from the beach to a different site…
“Not only do we not have (answers), but we also do not know who the perpetrator of this crime is,” the speaker stated.
Mr. Warren requests that Attorney General Mark Dreyfus intervene.
He must now undergo an investigation. The Prime Minister must intervene. We cannot accept this.
He expressed concern that the same fate will strike other Australian families if nothing is done immediately.
“I cannot fail her. Mr. Warren added, “I have to get this done for her, and I will not give up.”
