PN leader Adrian Delia today requested the Prime Minister to provide former FIAU investigator Jonathan Ferris with adequate security protection after Ferris claimed former Minister Carmelo Abela interfered with his investigations.
Abela has denied the claim, but the Opposition is now calling for his resignation.
Addressing the media this morning, Delia said he had sent a letter to Muscat requesting protection for Ferris and his family.
Ferris, who claims he was unfairly dismissed from the Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit because he was investigating serious crimes involving top government officials, has given a number of interviews, in which he described Malta as a corrupt country.
"Abela's statement only confirms what Ferris said," Delia said.
