JOSEPH MUSCAT, MALTA'S DISGRACED EX-PM, FEARING ARREST, SEEKS PARLIAMENTARY IMMUNITY THROUGH ELECTION AS MEP

 

JOSEPH MUSCAT, the defrocked & disgraced former Prime Minister of the Republic of Malta, is attempting to do what America's indicted former president, Donald Trump, is attempting: to avoid prison by being elected yet again. Muscat is actively seeking to be a candidate in the upcoming European union parliamentary MEP elections, which are scheduled to occur June 6-9, 2024. He desperately wants the Parliamentary Immunity which comes with the position. He is said to be under criminal investigation  in more than one jurisdiction for Foreign Corrupt Practises Act/Bribery Act violations. Haven't his lawyers already told him MEP status will not protect him outside of the European Union?

 He was previously an MEP from Malta during the period 2004-2008, and that was where his membership on the Azerbaijan Membership Committee reportedly exposed him to corrupt Azeri connections that he later allegedly helped launder government funds illegally diverted abroad through Malta's Iranian-owned Pilatus Bank.

The source of the information, an Insider in the PL Executive Committee* who contacted us in confidence on WhatsApp, has advised that the current PM, Robert Abela, presently under attack from within his party, does not want Muscat representing Malta in the European Parliament, due to his potential criminal liability in a number of foreign jurisdictions. Will he prevail, or will Muscat continue to dominate PL politics? 

Muscat continues to use his diplomatic passport when traveling abroad, notwithstanding that he is not entitled by law to have one after he left public office, as it allows the holder to totally bypass customs officials at international airports of entry overseas. It should be confiscated.
