Malta: Listen – A politician is named in the Daphne Caruana Galizia murder case

When the compilation of evidence against Yorgen Fenech resumed this week, the man who says he served as the business tycoon’s murder middleman brought another high-profile name to prominence: Chris Cardona.

Melvin Theuma’s testimony in court this week raises the possibility that more than one person sought to have Caruana Galizia murdered. Theuma claimed that Fenech told him that Cardona had given one of the alleged hitmen €350,000, and that the former minister’s number was found on a burner phone by police.

Cardona has denied the testimony as “nonsense and lies”.
