My Mother’s Murder

Within months, three hitmen were arrested for Daphne's assassination. Then – nothing. For two years it seemed that whichever powerful Maltese interests had ordered her murder might get away with it. Until last November when an extraordinary and unprecedented series of events began to unfold. Daphne’s son Paul was in the country to witness it descend into turmoil, and for questions which his family had been asking for years finally to be answered. Hosted on Acast.

It is a little over two years since Daphne Caruana Galizia, Malta’s pre-eminent investigative journalist, died in a car bomb, and the shock is still being felt. In an EU member country, how was such a political assassination even possible? How closely implicated in the plot were high-ranking members of the government and business?The questions only deepened as it began to appear that the people behind the murder might get away with it. Daphne’s son Paul Caruana Galizia is a reporter at Tortoise. Amidst growing uncertainty about whether justice would ever be done, he returned to Malta late last year to investigate. Hosted on Acast.
