Maltese tycoon acquitted in Caruana Galizia murder case; prosecution to appeal
Guardian WorldLO·MT·1 day ago
Yorgen Fenech, the only defendant in the 2017 murder of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, was acquitted, leaving the case unresolved. Defense pointed to former chief of staff Keith Schembri as the 'hidden hand,' but the trial failed to clarify the chain of command. The acquittal marks a setback for accountability in a high-profile press-freedom case.
