A tumultuous week in politics as the international project began releasing stories

Claire Caruana gives an overview of the revelations to emerge last week from the international journalists following Daphne Caruana Galizia’s stories.

The first in a series of stories published as part of the Daphne Project quoted witnesses saying that Economy Minister Chris Cardona had been seen drinking with one of the three men facing charges of murdering Ms Caruana Galizia.

Dr Cardona’s presence at a bar frequented by the men accused of murdering Daphne Caruana Galizia was flagged to the inquiring magistrate in the case.

Brothers George and Alfred Degiorgio are in custody, standing accused of the murder, along with Vincent Muscat. All three men deny the charges.

The witnesses described the minister as a regular visitor to the bar on weekends and said they had seen him having a drink with one of the men both before and after Ms Caruana Galizia was murdered.

The Daphne Project is an investigation by more than 18 international media organisations dedicated to continuing the work of Ms Caruana Galizia. They include top-flight newspapers The New York Times, The Guardian, La Repubblica, Le Monde and Süddeutsche Zeitung. Malta is represented by the Times of Malta.
