Protest calling for respect of rule of law in Valletta

A protest by a number of activists calling for respect for the rule of law took place outside the European Parliament's Valletta offices, as an MEP delegation on a fact-finding mission ends its visit to Malta.

The activists, from groups L-Awturi, Il-Kenniesa, Occupy Justice and V.U.C.I, say Malta is facing an "institutional crisis". 

In a statement, the four activist groups reiterated calls for the police commissioner and attorney general to be removed and for appointment mechanisms for those roles to be changed. 

"Yesterday, we were given the opportunity to discuss with the European Committee our great concerns about the situation in our country," the activists said. "We trust they will deliver our message to the Prime Minister in the hope that he will finally listen and act."
