Despite what Judge Edwina Grima is thinking on how we should interpret the law, these are days when we need Mr Ranger more than ever to provide us with the evidence that reminds us why, ultimately, Joseph Muscat was forced to resign. This is a story I have told various times in my works. In late 2019, Malta’s political crisis centered around the arrest of Yorgen Fenech resulting in the implication, both by association and even direct participation, that the Office of the Prime Minister was involved in the murder and/or the cover-up of the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia.
The main link between the murderer, Yorgen Fenech, and the OPM was the Prime Minister’s own chief of staff and best friend, Keith Schembri who had also secured the employment of the middleman of the murder, Melvin Theuma, with the government. Joseph Muscat is implicated in the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia by association because Keith Schembri, being a very close friend of Joseph Muscat, would have divulged to him everything that was being communicated between him and Yorgen Fenech. Joseph Muscat explained this bizarre situation by saying that both he and Keith Schembri acted as sort of “double agents” to Yorgen Fenech simultaneously when they were briefed by the Police and the Security Services over the investigation of the murder.
Today, Mr Ranger has published further evidence of this close relationship between Yorgen Fenech and Keith Schembri. In the nine months before Yorgen Fenech was arrested, he exchanged a total of 200 calls with Keith Schembri on the encrypted application Signal. Today, Joseph Muscat is re-entering politics as if all these events have never happened.
Had we had a properly functioning Police Force and Security Services, this evidence is currently being used in criminal cases against Joseph Muscat and Yorgen Fenech. Instead, this evidence has been laid to rest and shelved for years with no action taken about it. The public deserves the right to know about this evidence given that the Police have decided to hide it instead of using it in criminal cases.
