The emergence of a mass fear haven and if so is it partly responsible for this latest killing. This was welcome to come thanks for having me in the aftermath of the killing of Daphne Corona your Prime MinisterJoseph Muscat describe this rather curiously as a wake up call twenty eight bombings in malta since two thousand and three and this is a wake up call sounds as though youve slept through a lot of other wakeup calls that well actually whats happened recently is that. In this case particularly the police have done a very good job because bernie six weeks after the murder of the africa i want to go to the police managed to arrange three persons in Court Last Week i understand that but out of the twenty eight that have happened since two thousand and three only twenty six twenty six have remained unsolved while you say this this case and self will. Bring gives us confidence that we might actually come back to the idea of the cases and for those of the world where you have a lot of it so that ive heard yes yes im very thankful but you didnt seem to manage on your own its so easy if youve only solved two out of twenty eight where you see the this case particularly in the car and again its a case wasnt was a something very shocking for the nation i mean this is was there wasnt any one no murders and the but this was a particularly striking and shocking murder for us this was a criminal gang trying to give a bring out a message trying to. To give a message that. Different freedom of expression and what is threatened so this will smith of this very seriously very grave very grave ok i understand them in just eight days may days after the killing the head of the italian Anti Mafia Commission warned that the mafia phenomenon that she called it was expanding in malta maffia phenomenon certain individuals she said were finding what she called hospitality to carry out their criminal activities particularly Drug Trafficking why do you offer hospitality to people like that in absolutely not i mean these were these are unfounded allegations and this is the law fear head of the commission nobody suitable to my knowledge she hasnt come forward with any evidence or thought and so its unfair to say that because somebody says something in the press somewhere else anywhere in the world so you simply dismiss that thats not abuse not going to tell your mouth to mouth your commission talks nonsense there is what youre saying thats your putting words in my mouth and mouth but absolutely what im saying is that. As a european country we are members of the European Union rough european standards and we have the rule of law nobody is above the law well wait a minute do you say the european stance is always because should have she have complained that youre not cooperating with the corporate under way to do it the way to go about ngs is to go to the normal channels so the normal challenges are the magistrates and there are. Very well known and well respected magistrates on the island and they they do the work which she went through normal channels and she has requested the names of foreigners for instance who bought maltese passports currently being sold in return for six hundred fifty thousand us dollars no i disagree with that norma channelers dont mean that you can get any information from anywhere just by speaking in a newspaper there are the rule of law more than they would be in italy as there would be but i hope there would be an at and i hope it would be in germany and london whenever this information what they want in their future mission which is whos bought. Passport what what national because there are rules and other names of the markers there are in the us and there are laws and more read through it all have a good number of the European Club absolutely are supposed to help in the prevention of crime to do and we do absolutely but you know your thoughts on this information which would help in the prevention and i know youre wrong youre a poor here and they helped us to solve the or at least the rain people in the case of the car one identity. In this case that youre talking about for sure i mean you have. European countries that have european standards and youre selling passports to people and giving them a back to into the European Union not pouncing on though you are certain you are wrong youre wrong with this so this is what they say no no youre wrong so what she says is wrong. I dont know what youre quoting curtseying but i can tell you what you are saying now is wrong because we our passports scream as you call it its a private investor scheme really is approved by the European Commission it is approved by the European Commission theres nothing that were doing which is illegal which is anywhere ill say will you go to Law Enforcement agencies are asked for information youre not providing we are of course we are but why did you say then the children long long forgiven you havent given them the name of you know the numbers and the nationalities of those who are acquiring these well. You know there is the there is europol as you say the re will cooperate completely absolutely one hundred percent but your report and then do that christopher on top of those concerns from the italians your own chief justice silvio coming larry felt the need in october to warn in the strongest possible terms that unless the authorities here carried out their duties impartially there would be punishment for some and not for others instead of the rule of law he said we will have the rule of delinquent thats why do you think he was warning so strongly about the rule of delinquents here in malta if everything is as you say he was only five he was speaking in. The underworld. During for the for the judiciary so who doesnt matter there was so serious no it was another serious war that sort of i just plus put it in context i was talking to the judiciary in this context and yes absolutely anywhere in the world if the rule of law isnt covered and then theres a problem and we pride ourselves in doing this. And nobody is above the law wouldnt have given that warning witty why do you see spoke specifically about rule of delinquents no absolutely no danger of the rule of delinquents here in malta. The mortys law states clearly that and no theres nobody above the law nobody Prime Minister downwards and they have been allegations against people in Parliament People being. And cabinet even and they have been taken very seriously why not. You can accuse People Better the end of the hate has to be proven in court barely six weeks after this more shocking murder that weve had this kind of an admission that we have actually a range of people in court i mean this is probably while youre attending you know that is going to get to the as a very Significant Development made differently it is very much you dont really need to be. Responsible for this whole murder of a little boy going on in the murder well lets wait and see what the compilation of of this brings up i mean thats wait and see what happens this is what happens in a country with rule of law you wait for courts to give you a lot of people dont get so its a very narrow missive you are only wrong in what you dont you dont have to extrapolate and make allegations fact you have to wait until there was a revelation last month from the European Parliament yet which is a serious crimes and not being investigated by the police in malta do you take well as seriously about allegations that off well any European Parliament is of course free to comment and we always think anything the European Parliament and the parliamentarians be they more to be the european seriously of course we do we dont always have to agree with what you fell out people badly with a recent delegation that came here the Prime Minister questioned whether whether the call for them to come the Prime Minister met did that again and then question whether it was useful for them to come because they appeared to have made up their minds oh yes you see because that is a bit unfair if you come here every of make it appear on mine before you actually start investigation the thing that can be a bit unfair but no should we take anybodys comments. Seriously as far as long as the f. O. Comment you take seriously that in the Transparency International corruption in the full last year you fell to an all time low which was forty seventh place to take that seriously as well. When there are so. Now when there are concerns done and yes we need to look at this in fact what weve been doing over the last few months since the elections is that weve actually increasing or weve actually given and giving at the moment were discussing this in parliament and i spoke in parliament about this last week but giving a stronger rights to the mortys. Press for the First Time Since the statute books have been written were removing criminal libel there is this has been always. Since the war since the world war criminal libel here and more that i live in than just the wrongdoings that you understand but the whole place is no place in that doesnt that clinic was absolutely forty sevens place goes right against what youve been telling people that theres been very centrally you said in an interview in july that transparency and accountability reinforce the fact that not only are we governing correctly but also we are seen to be doing it if you fall into forty seventh place in the corruption and they are evidence to that youre not being seen to do it they are reacting to that because as you say we know its not just doing it we have to be seen to be doing it and we are reacting to this positively we take criticism and this is one way of doing it chris for just half an hour before dusk khurana gurlitz walked out of her house and got into her car for the last time she wrote in her blog there are crooks everywhere you look in the house the situation is desperate and her murder proved it didnt it thats thats the only palatable no i dont think she was referring to the criminal gang that well i dont know what she was a very interested to be honestly to be honest with you about what youve been talking about and writing about for the last two months before her birth for a brutal murder was the situation with the new leader of the opposition the new leader of the opposition in the year had been criticized very very anxiously bike i went to going to see over the last she criticizes english increases your government salute yes she has a right to go out to the opposition notion. And shes she actually youre right you criticized practically everybody on the island that she had the right to do and people who feel aggrieved had the right to take her to court so this was all in all including this law absolutely not no no no youre saying that she took on you know if. Youre saying that what she wrote was connected to the murder im saying it not knesset not necessarily the case how do you think that theyre saying or what you but youre saying that that wasnt im saying its not necessarily the case would have to wait and see but if you are targets along with business absolutely Business People that they were angry they took her to court as you would do in a normal country where the rule of law. And the rule of law more than one of your number decided it had to stop someone on this island i decided it was not a very now fairly geisha and im surprised that youre doing this what you say someone on this is a politician no im not saying i see how the politician as a pianist isnt it its really the sense that is is that someone decided to decide not to start this is really there are three people who are in the court in any country where there is the rule of law you wait for the court to give you the vision and that is what he wanted you and your legations on your part otherwise is extremely unfair some of it doesnt have faith in the investigation here is it time you called for an independent international in my position you just said that we have the foreign foreign f. B. I. Europe or the dutch police force who are giving us and finish with what were getting are these are all International Organizations europe or europe you know but they were there has. Fallen into our listening for you see there is the investigation is being led by a magistrate and the code i want to get its your family have confidence in that just reporting that history and i just read that law and i as a government we have absolutely full confidence in the in the magistrates and in the little courts here more than plenty of your colleagues losed. Hard to say definitely khurana gurlitz they really loved it and i will say that now in february this year the minister of justice owen bonnie she called her extreme yeah every spatola the Education Minister accused her of lying and attacking people who were sick at the time of her death she was facing more than forty lawsuits including one from your Prime Minister absolutely and one so you went all the way with a vengeance didnt you know this is you see in a country where there is a new law journalists are allowed to say whatever they feel like but then of course if they Say Something which people feel aggrieved about whoever feels about what has the as right are taken to court but one of the cases this is happened when i was cases where she was acquitted and there have been cases where she was found to be guilty as one of her says lets put it the libel suits were part of a wider strategy to shut her up they seem designed to eat up her time and her money no i disagree. You want to stand by the rule of law and we do then there has to be freedom of expression but of course people who are spoken about who are written about have a right to reply and to the plain court one but one of your ministers Chris Cardona went so far as to get a court order to freeze her bank in the us so as to guarantee shed be able to pay up if she lost and that is what happened to the presumption of innocence while death is there you see this is what always happens everywhere in the world when there is a criminal or when there is a civil case then the person who is feeling aggrieved has the right to ask for a gun issue or that this happens everywhere in the world surely you know quite confessing that. So many people though had a motive to order a killing in this Close Knit Community in that where there was a good chance of getting away with violent crime. Twenty six out of twenty eight bombings hadnt been so i come back to this you see because i say this again barely six weeks after the car when i got it it was murder the police are arraigning people in court even as we speak this week so surely what you are saying is doesnt that had have been reset the straightaway but youre not going to leave anything. To three were convicted youre not going to tell me that this was the show you think was. An entire significant i didnt say i wasnt saying well its a very significant its not the whole story youre not going to call me the whole story oh no absolutely thats what youve cracked the crime youve solved the crime in this case this is what youre telling me lets wait and see what the courts come up with thats written a minister in august that. Turned her fire on you didnt she personally she claimed you had failed to inquire why the government had signed what she called a shady deal for Public Hospital management with an untested new outfit called Vitals Global Health care. The Shadow Health minister said the deal stank of corruption why did you sign such an enormous deal with a company that was totally totally. Tested in this field of hospital that you are saying that this was me personally i didnt sign the myself so no but the government that the government just made that clone i was saying you said. Yes the government signed is the its happening at the moment the hospitals being developed the bards medical school here in watertown and started the start of the course its got first year medical students training on the island and with bots and hospitals are running but when the nominee is available in the world that actually run the hospital before well this was you see this was a public tender it was a public quest for proposals there were a number of companies who applied. To get in board eventually. One that had no track record in this field at all well its all just no way should as Partners HealthCare International who run the boston hospital as who are some of what this Actual Company vitals another run a hospital the vitals itself no my knowledge no blood but there is no you choose this for this culture this is usually valuable contract well again two billion euros a year isnt something that a minister decides it is an educated board which sees all day purposes and then choose of the proposal according to merit in october twenty sixth you released a heavily redacted copy of your green mint with with vitals in parliament it wasnt till the full document was leaked to the times of malta that the exact terms were visible to the public why did you seek to restrict access to the term degree my part of the agreements as you would expect in any. Commercially sensitive agreement have need to be or that are by on advice of lawyers because theres. There are commercial sensitivities which will need to be protected so what damage was done by having the contract leak while you say it was the full quote actually i havent seen this full contract that what the times have i dont know what they have they had details which you didnt originally support i dont know what it is and times have maybe you know more than a Company Managing three state hospitals being paid one hundred eighty eight thousand euros a day on the basis of no experience whatsoever in the field know theyre running the hospitals and those doing the monies that you mention are not not legal not not not Management Fees they are fees to run the actual hospitals so they are salaries for for doctors and for nurses they are. Expenses for medicines their expenses for keeping people in and operating theatres so it doesnt stink of corruption is not the case that has caused the most problems began in april last year with revelations from the socalled Panama Papers the leak of these eleven million documents from the Panamanian Law Firm who should be named in them but two senior officials in your government former Energy Minister conrad mitzi and the Prime Minister chief of staff case can be both of whom i should emphasize insists they did absolutely nothing wrong you know mitzi it transpired to set up a trust in new zealand without telling the commissioner of Inland Revenue scammer he had a company in panama which the Prime MinisterJoseph Muscat only found out about in the media now instead of firing the two of them which the Prime MinisterJoseph Muscat talked about doing. He told a local newspaper under normal circumstances they would have had to resign but i also needed them to implement certain projects theyre not just friends which in this case is irrelevant i knew that speculation would mount on my decision to retain them but i put the Country First in order to deliver the power station and other things pretty brazen pretty permissive you had two people who at least on the surface should have resigned but the Prime Minister kept more Close Friends kept telling them is. Nobody is above the rule of law here except for the no not you again youre wrong there are magistrates who are actually investigating this so and some ongoing process if there are any if any of the allegations are found founded the fact after these allegations then yes not only will they have to resign they will have to face the decisions by the court the public is supposed to accept at face value that the Prime Ministers friendship with these two was a no consequence whatsoever but again you see there are thats why there are a Court Reporter people are tried in court theyre not ride on a Television Program and you know you respect but what we have is a clear breach of cabinet rules and tax rules certain explained away is the best thing for the country by keeping these people who. They are being investigated by magistrates so you make up the rules as you go along you make up the rules no absolutely we dont you see thats what we dont do we dont make up the rules as we go along we stick to what the rule of law states and the rule of law states that you are investigated by a magistrate not by the media in march twenty sixth the Prime Minister said that paid a fine for his factual commission it turned out he had the Prime Minister corrected himself the next has mr mitzi now paid his fine pay the fine for for not telling the commissioner of income taxes about the foundation in new zealand im not aware of that and i dont know the details of that. Or is that Something Else the public is not entitled to know i dont have the details of that myself it doesnt mean it hasnt happened i dont know and the Prime Minister said that scammer would resign if criminal proceedings person started against him yes but instead of going on with that we now discover this year leaks from the states financial watchdog the Financial IntelligenceAnalysis Unit showed that in this case they had sufficient evidence to conclude a reasonable suspicion of money you know their fire you deny that they have denied it they have. The European Union drew attention to this so they had no suspicions therefore you have the nie that theres a report because what year it was it was there was a legit what you are referring to is that there was a person who said he said this in the media that he has knowledge that there was something which was kept secret the f. I. A. Are saying that there was no such completed report that there might have been a draft that this person referred to but again you see. There are courts and if there is evidence then they should go to the court there is and there is a magistrate who is investigating all these on the hearings and they should go and the magistrate who were will go along with whatever the courts say the man is i have an option we decide something that we choose to go on what emerges is very up as an elk i magine straight in for decided to launch an inquiry didnt it but the Prime Minister along with six others goes to court try to shut down this inquiry if they have the right spots in court that if you wanted to get to the truth why did the problem is to go along to shut down the very inquiry that would have been a Little Something that you might know but this is something usually when you say you are open and transparent the Prime Minister hasnt shut down inquiry the Prime Minister has he went along to ask for erastus he asked in court because there has a right to do that why not why this is one way but if you want to find the truth why shut down the inquiry that might deliver it but you see this is it hasnt other than he has asked for it hasnt succeeded yet mighty fast and you want to shut it down yes and he has a right Prime Minister he has a record to the truth of the riser go to court and defend himself in court surely youre not saying the Prime Minister because he is Prime Minister hasnt the same rights as any citizen has to go to court and defense is that i understand that but hes not there defending his name is trying to shut down the inquiry before the inquiry islam is a holy see theres a lot of he doesnt even want to know the truth or you are wrong and this is. Just by the korean as a Prime Minister hes got as any normal citizen would do. Has gone to court to defend his name and this is a its not exactly up to because now defending his name is of course because if its an if if the court is independent and is going to do it was you know what the court said then it would bring out the truth but he doesnt even want to let it get that she was gone shut it down and well see where it became all over and agree with this or not they get this is again from shot down a Court Hearing that would deliver the truth as over and understand what it is that when challenged he wanted to do it you want to go are appealing. His appeals you see you you say yes you can choose a challenge isnt it its a challenge surely caught her out to appear at the court surely a lot of you are not allowed to do that then theres no rule of law if the courts just dish out sentences i know then you are not allowed to appeal its not it doesnt even want the inquiry to take place have to wait and see what the court he doesnt want to inquire have to work my support say this is the permissive atmosphere in which you get killings of jaws into israel for now because theres a bit of. Fear because somebody is appealing in front of the chords then you say that this is a tumor this is absolutely and says im afraid i have to set nonsense absolutely it doesnt show much respect for the rule of law does it on the contrary because there is a rule of law you have to go by what is normally allowed to do and used to shut down investigations. Youre allowed to appeal because i like any other. One because your Prime Minister going to what are the citizens there and agree. Mr christopher has been good to have you its ok im. Glad. Glad. Glad.
