Middleman in the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia granted pardon

Melvin Theuma, the person considered to be the middleman in the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia has been granted a Presidential Pardon.

Reports on TVM  say that the person is expected to be giving his evidence in front of Magistrate Neville Camilleri.

Prime Minister Joseph Muscat had signed a letter in which he committed himself to recommending a pardon for Mr Theuma, provided the information he provided about the October 2017 assassination was corroborated. Theuma is believed to have provided sufficient evidence to the police to back his claims so far.

The suspect had requested to receive immunity in the form of the pardon on all past crimes, before giving evidence.

This was confirmed in a statement
