The Guardian carries an interview it’s investigative reporter Juliette Garside about her role in exposing the truth about what happened in the Daphne Caruana Galizia 2017 murder.
Whilst going through the trials and tribulations of the investigation, Garside among other things states that Europe has woken up to the dangers that corruption in Malta and what it represents for rule of law in the EU.
She adds that one is seeing the beginnings of a civil society in Malta with citizens are feeling more empowered.
In her interview Garside states that the political corruption in Malta has not been dealt with and un spite of the change in Prime Ministers, there is still a sense of impunity with Daphne’s story is far from over.
Garside says that one impact was the resignation of Joseph Muscat as prime minister, but his Labour party are still in power, and he has been replaced by Robert Abela, who was very much seen as the continuity candidate.
She adds “People don’t think he will prosecute the alleged corruption cases uncovered during this affair. With Fenech due to stand trial, it’s possible that individuals closer to Muscat could be implicated, so who knows what that will bring.”
