Maltese Journalist Murder Case: Pardoned middleman suffers serious knife wounds

Melvin Theuma, the key accused in the murder of Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana, who was pardoned in exchange of his evidence by the President, has suffered serious knife injuries.

As per a report, Mr. Theuma, who was the one who played a key role in the crime as a middleman, has injured himself

An investigation is on. As per the preliminary report, the chance for any other possibility is less, as no break in has been reported and Mr. Theuma, who has been found with a knife in his hand, has confessed of having been hurt himself.

Notably, Mr. Theuma was supposed to appear in the court Today. His evidence is very crucial for the future of the case.

Caruana Galizia was a fearless journalist. She was an aggressive anti-corruption activist. She had many rivals – mainly politicians. She died in a car bomb blast in the year 2017. Her death brought the political class of the country in an unpleasant juncture. It crushed the support the then political bureaucracy had. It raised several questions – particularly about the safety of journalists.

Malta is a small country. It is at present going through a tough time. Its political class is powerful and unforgiving. It does not like questions – especially from journalists.
