Maltese Businessman's Acquittal in WikiLeaks Case
A Maltese court has acquitted businessman Jürgen Vinek of the charge of orchestrating the assassination of investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia in 2017, despite previous investigations concluding that the state bears responsibility due to an environment of impunity. His acquittal has provoked anger among the journalist’s family and human rights organizations, who see it as a flaw in the justice system and a reflection of failure to identify those responsible for the crime, which uncovered high-level corruption files and led to a political crisis resulting in the resignation of the Prime Minister. Meanwhile, the Maltese government affirmed its commitment to justice, stating that five individuals have been convicted of committing the crime.
