There should be a cable hanging down from where the latch was. Just grip with a pair of pliers and give it a gentle pull. You will hear a click and then you can release and go to the front of the car and open the bonnet.
If the level is slack - it points to a snapped bonnet release cable.
To open the bonnet in this situation (on a Fiat Punto), you'll need to get under the car.
I jacked up the car, placed it on a stand on the passenger side, and reached up underneath. I've videoed it - quick to do once you see it.
