If Joseph Muscat hadn’t protected Keith Schembri and Konrad Mizzi in 2016 my mother would still be alive. He has blood on his hands. https://t.co/T4kLXmFjyd — Andrew Caruana Galizia (@acaruanagalizia) November 20, 2019 Join us. 6pm today. Castille. Let them know what you think.

I have been fielding many questions from international journalists this morning about what’s going on in Malta. One of them asked me a question that stumped me. Why is the prime minister briefing the press on a police investigation? Why doesn’t the police do it? For us so close to this story the question slips [...]

JOSEPH MUSCAT MUST RESIGN OR PARLIAMENT MUST FIRE HIM Repubblika, #occupyjustice and manueldelia.com are calling you to join them. If you are a member of civil society, if you feel you’ve been lied to time and time again, if you feel that those who’s duty it is to safeguard our country and institutions have betrayed the country, then you [...]

Look, it’s quite simple really. Yorgen Fenech is – in criminal terms – innocent until proven otherwise and all that. We’re not going to presume his guilt until a jury of his peers convicts him. But we’re not going to wait that long to demand accountability. There’s no one left for whom it is not [...]

The name Melvin Theuma was outed by Malta Today earlier today as the alleged middleman in the conspiracy that assassinated Daphne Caruana Galizia. As Caroline Muscat wrote a few hours later, the name has been in the awareness of several journalists for many weeks. Many of us were aware that for months one of the [...]

The prime minister has just confirmed the story in The Times of Malta this morning. He said a number of people were arrested last week in anti-money laundering operation and one of them is believed to be connected to the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia.Joseph Muscat said he has made a written undertaking to recommend [...]

Aaron Bugeja has recused himself on his own initiative from hearing the appeal of Ministers Chris Cardona, Konrad Mizzi and Edward Scicluna from a magistrate’s order to list them as suspects in an ongoing criminal inquiry into the sale of three public hospitals. Aaron Bugeja pointed out the magistrate’s order came on the request of [...]

Let’s strike some doubt out of the way. The story in The Times of Malta this morning is absolutely correct. The identity of the person arrested last Thursday has been known to some journalists for some time, well before his arrest. The information he claims to be in possession of is important and could bring [...]

Let’s not get too excited. Keith Schembri had a terrible day in court last week. But it was not worse than the terrible day he had when the Panama Papers came out. The corrupt roadmap to their personal enrichment was never meant to emerge into public awareness. We were never meant to know. The brave [...]
