Malta hits back at MEPs' report
By EUobserver
Maltese justice minister Owen Bonnici told civil liberties committee MEPs in Brussels on Thursday that their recent report on lawlessness in Malta was "not the correct picture". But Andrew Caruana Galizia, the son of Daphne Caruana Galizia, a Maltese journalist who was killed amid investigations into government corruption, told the euro-deputies: "Malta has become a place of crime, where money is laundered. It's toxifying European politics".
