The AFM has called off the search for missing snorkeler Herbert Mercieca, 34, missing for a week in Ghajn Tuffieha.

The search was conducted over the past few days by AFM divers and helicopters. Members of the Civil Protection Department performed a search along the shore.

Mr Mercieca's discarded diving float and his harpoon were found soon after the search was launched.
