Investigations into Marsascala migrant landing ongoing

Home Affairs Minister Michael Farrugia said that  investigations into the landing of nine migrants in Marsascala were ongoing and that the police were trying to ascertain where these migrants left from and who had transported them and their boat into the Mediterranean.

Last Sunday, nine migrants landed on an engine-powered boat near the waterpolo pitch with seven Syrians and two Libyans.

Farrugia also stated that the police are also investigating whether this landing was an isolated incident, or whether something similar had already happened before. 

According to the results of these investigations, the police will be taking all the necessary steps and actions that it must, Farrugia concluded
