Yesterday, Jason Azzopardi was slapped with libel damages by the Court over his claims that Carmelo Abela was involved in the infamous Qormi HSBC heist.
I would like to point out some facts about this case which are not opinion, but actual facts.
- Carmelo Abela was indeed a suspect in the Qormi HSBC heist and was interrogated by the police on the matter. I confirmed this myself from top-ranking police officers.
- There was indeed an accomplice from HSBC and HSBC employees also suspected Carmelo Abela. This also I could confirm myself.
- The high-ranking Police officer responsible for investigating Carmelo Abela was recently promoted, and has yet to prove himself in his work given his questionable political loyalties.
- The allegation in public that Carmelo Abela was involved in the Qormi HSBC heist originated from the Degiorgio brothers who are known to be pathological liars and are currently serving time in jail for killing Daphne Caruana Galizia.
This is all I can say about the case about Carmelo Abela and I can’t be the judge to say whether he was involved or not. What I write here are just the facts at hand. I think that Jason Azzopardi couldn’t say these things in court, so hopefully this points a better picture of the situation.
