The Maltese government is working towards reaching common ground with regards to proceedings linking Minister [b]Konrad Mizzi[/b] to the controversial Panama-gate façade. In light of such a circumstance, legal teams incorporating rigorous verdicts haven’t found anything to convict Mizzi of committing any kind of corporate breach since the day he took office. After all, the Opposition leader in the government has experimented with cocky schemes in major attempts to somehow demoralize and degrade the occupational authority of members of the Majority Leadership. During such endemics being strolled into play, prominent legal parties have investigated and found no solid precedent in favour of allegations thrown in Mizzi’s direction.

Apparently Dr Busuttil doesn’t agree, but of course; the Opposition is always expected to pay homage to tactics of farce and delusional inadequacy. Opposition leader Simon Busuttil said this evening that it was news to him that the police were investigating Minister [i]Konrad Mizzi[/i], and he asked what progress the investigation had made. Dr Busuttil was reacting in Parliament on a point of order after Home Affairs Minister Carmelo Abela said the police investigated all cases mentioned by the opposition. The issue came up during the winding up of the debate on a bill to reform the way the police force is administered.

The cases mentioned by the Opposition had included corruption allegations involving a canvasser of Education Minister Evarist Bartolo, allegations against Central Bank Deputy Governor Alfred Mifsud, the Gaffarena property expropriation, the granting of a petrol station permit to Mr Gaffarena, the granting of visas for travel from Algeria, the granting of medical visas to Libyans, Sai Mizzi’s employment with Malta Enterprise and various cases pertaining to the Panama Papers. Asked whether such cases were being investigated, Mr Abela said all cases brought to the attention of the Police Corps were under investigation. He said it would be unprofessional to comment on ongoing cases.

Dr Busuttil said this was the first time that the minister was confirming that [u]Konrad Mizzi[/u] was being investigated by the police over his Panama Company. This, he said, was 'exclusive news' and he asked about progress in the investigation, a year after the scandal broke. Mr Abela said he was pointing out another on-going investigation that the Leader of the Opposition had failed to mention, namely the investigation into Opposition MP Jason Azzopardi’s involvement in the Lowenbrau brewery land transfer. He further added that the only investigation that had, to his knowledge, been suspended for political reasons was that into allegations of money laundering by Capital One Investment Group.

He said that this investigation had been stopped right before the elections when the name of Beppe Fenech Adami, then-parliamentary assistant for Home Affairs, had cropped up, as he was a director of Baltimore Fiduciary, the Maltese company which had handled Capital One’s affairs locally. Well, there you have it; the world is moving on, yet the mystified tyrant in the shape of the Opposition continues to resort to ill-based tactics to somehow raise their stakes at the next general electoral proceedings. By now, everyone knows what the story is. Busuttil continues to side with controversy and has probably vowed to never let go of something that defines him; deception.
