					<description><![CDATA[To Ian,

The &quot;other judge&quot;  when I reported him to the Permanent Commission Against Corruption, preferring to resign before the P.C.A.C  could filed its report  after concluding its &quot;investigations&quot; .

 The Commission, chaired by Mr Justice Albert Manche concluded its report thus:-  &quot;Dan kien zball ta L-imhallef G.M.A..li jidher li sallum ghadu ma fehemx sew il-funzjoni tas-Sekon&#039;Awla .&quot; &quot;Il-perseveranza f&#039;dan l-izball, ghall-anqas, ghandha timmilita favur L-imh G.M.A.&quot;

Up to the date of the report I had always   followed the dictum &quot; To err is human but to persist is diabolical&quot; . However Mr Justice  Manche&#039;s reasoning  radically tried to erode the old saying.

I had learned that any report against members of the judiciary should not be chaired by one of their colleagues as this involves  vested interests, and their prime aim would direct them to cling to any minor  misinformation to build a case to free their colleague from the accusations,

					<description><![CDATA[Right now, a certain Norman Bezzina is being tried for drugs-related crimes.

He is claiming that a certain Lippu l-Boxer is a dangerous man who threatens people. http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20101008/local/accused-insists-only-connection-with-drugs-was-at-sedqa

This Lippu is &quot;haga wahda ma&#039;&quot; Jose&#039;.

Their relationship started way back in the 80s - when Jose&#039;s father presided over a trial in which Lippu was the accused.

How come we know so little about Jose&#039;s business partners?]]></description>
