The woman, who testified recently in a Spanish court, said she noticed the accused, Mitchell Ong, had injuries on his knees, reported Spanish media outlet La Verdad on Sept 23.
The woman, who was not identified, described Ong as an aggressive person. She did not quiz him about his injuries.
La Verdad reported that Ong, 43, and the Ukrainian woman had been romantically linked for several years but have since broken up. He had previously confided in her about his financial woes.
It is not clear from Spanish media reports whether Ong's trial has started, or what his charges are. It was previously reported that Ong was in pre-trial detention in Spain.
Ong has been in custody since April 16 after Ms Fang was found dead with 30 stab wounds and other injuries near a parking area for lorries in the town of Abanilla on April 10.
