Guardian WorldLO·MT·about 15 hours ago
A Maltese court acquitted tycoon Yorgen Fenech of complicity in the 2017 murder of investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, who had exposed high-level corruption. The verdict overturns a key conviction in a case that had implicated senior officials, and it has triggered public outrage. The acquittal raises questions about the integrity of Malta's judicial process and the safety of journalists in the EU.
