Daphne Caruana Galizia murder: Malta PM vows to stay until investigation complete
Anger from protesters as Joseph Muscat says his job is to ‘see this investigation concluded’
Malta’s prime minister, Joseph Muscat, emerged from a marathon cabinet meeting at 3am on Friday to announce that he would stay in the job until the investigation into the murder of the journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia was complete.
In a night of high drama in Valletta, Muscat had summoned ministers to his office to decide whether to grant a presidential pardon to a businessman arrested last week on suspicion of masterminding the journalist’s assassination in October 2017.
