WATCH: Hunter Filmed Shooting Turtle Dove With Semi-Automatic Shotgun In Malta

WATCH: Hunter Filmed Shooting Turtle Dove With Semi-Automatic Shotgun In Malta Share: A video has been posted online showing a hunter illegally shooting a turtle dove at Chadwick Lakes last week. The video was shot by the Committee Against Bird Slaughter (CABS), an NGO that monitors the Maltese countryside in a bid to report illegal hunting. It said the shot bird was one of thousands being targetted across the Maltese archipelago as they travelled to the breeding grounds in continental Europe   “The perpetrator shot the turtle dove with an illegal adapted semi-automatic shotgun. The suspect is one of four poachers we have identified in just the last few days,” CABS said in a Facebook post.

Soldier death ruling proves sham inquiry, uncle claims

A court ruling holding the AFM responsible for the death of a 19-year-old soldier during a training exercise 12 years ago has prompted his uncle to call out the “sham inquiry” that had failed to apportion blame following the incident. On Thursday, the court awarded Matthew Psaila’s family €178,500 in compensation after deciding that the army’s failures “exceeded by far” those of the victim, who was 20% to blame for the fatal episode. The remaining 80% was attributable solely to the Armed Forces of Malta, Madam Justice Joanne Vella Cuschieri ruled. Psaila died in 2009, three days after a gruelling training course that included an exercise conducted in the water of Chadwick Lakes in cold weather. 

AFM failure is 80% to blame for gunner s tragic 2009 death, court rules

The Armed Forces of Malta has been ordered to pay almost €180,000 by way of compensation to the family of a young soldier who died as a result of a gruelling training exercise at Chadwick Lakes 12 years ago. Failures by the army “exceeded by far” those of the victim, who was attributed 20% of the blame for the fatal episode, the court decided. The remaining 80% was attributable solely to the AFM which was to compensate the Psaila family €178,500 by way of damages for the incident. The sum was awarded to the parents and brother of gunner Matthew Psaila, the 19-year-old soldier who had joined the army in 2008, before moving on to more intensive training as an infantry officer destined to join the army’s ‘elite’ arm.
