“The actions of the Maltese Government are a betrayal of the Maltese people. We will not stand for it. We will not rest until this evil criminal cabal leaves office and faces justice.” Member of the European Parliament David Casa said this during a protest organised by the Maltese Community in Brussels and Defend Democracy in front of the Maltese Permanent Representation to the EU in Brussels.

David Casa, who forms part of the European Parliament’s Bureau in his role as Quaestor, explained why Malta is no longer a normal country. “With every minute that the Prime Minister continues to hold onto power, more damage is done. Justice is still prevented from taking its course while he remains there,” insisted Casa who, once again, called for the immediate resignation of Prime Minister Joseph Muscat.

Whilst he thanked European Parliament President David Maria Sassoli for his support, David Casa explained that whilst nobody had any doubt that Daphne Caruana Galizia’s murder was a political assassination, nobody knew how far up it went. “We now know that this evil leads all the way to the Office of the Prime Minister and that the Maltese public participated in the funding of this assassination.”

The protest was also addressed by Tom Gibson from the Committee to Protect Journalists, Oliver Money-Kyrle from the  International Press Institute, Ricardo Guiterrez from the European Federation of Journalists, Alice Stollmeyer from Defend Democracy and Andrew Caruana Galizia, the son of Daphne Caruana Galizia.
