WITNESS CONFIRMS FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED IN DEATH OF MONEY LAUNDERING PROSECUTOR, CONTRARY TO GOVERNMENT PROPAGANDA ARM

The flurry of articles about the suspicious death of Maltese prosecutor Karl Muscat that have appeared in local media are inconsistent with the truth.  An individual with a close relationship to the deceased sent a message to a prominent public figure, detailing how the prosecutor, who was known to be zealously pursuing a number of major money laundering cases against prominent Maltese figures, was being harassed and bullied at work, and being pressured from above to slow-walk those cases by his superiors, including the Attorney General, Victoria Buttigieg, who answers to Labour Party leaders, in all matters. We are protecting both that witness, as well as the recipient of that message, for their personal safety. Obviously, he did not die from his own hand.

Although it is admitted that toxicology tests are ongoing, the character of the deceased, a crime-fighting prosecutor in the Office of the Attorney General, has already been smeared as an alcohol abuser, and a heavy user of illegal narcotics. These bogus charges, which are not true, are an attempt to tarnish his character. It is an organized effort to establish a narrative for the public to swallow the fiction that Karl was responsible for his own death, not third parties.

The Government is strongly pushing its own version of the events. We note that only senior management, and the editor of MT, are being fed "details" of the case. The fact that Executive Editor  Matthew Vella wrote the inflammatory article confirms our suspicion that the Government is behind a concerted campaign to establish their narrative, to the exclusion of any other possible causes of death, meaning foul play, and that it chose its favourite supposedly objective media arm for the task. It is common knowledge in Malta that the large amount of government advertising on MT made its part owner and CEO a millionaire, and gave him prime-time TV slots for his show.

Many of their readers are simply not buying the propaganda. Good readers are realizing that the article are an effort to impugn his character, so the public will move on, and ignore any truth tellers: 

In what many see as a desperate move, Labour Party trolls have taken to attacking this blogger for exposing the truth about Karl Muscat's death:

Most Compliance officers in the EU know to disregard articles by a Government mouthpiece when engaging in dire diligence investigations of Maltese clients and companies. We are going to continue our search for the truth, to determine who, or what, is behind Karl Muscat's death, wherever the story leads us. Stay tuned.
