Oh no, I did not say that – I think I commented about his position with the government of Malta elsewhere. He must resign from that position asap. He has lost the public’s trust.

But this is the political side of things, and is the same argument why Barroso was right to demand his resignation.

It is not hard to understand why the Police Commissioner would assume (wrongly) that many Maltese voters could be imbeciles when at the recent general election 36000 switchers thought that Joseph Muscat’s movement would be an improvement on the previous government. Now everybody, and their dogs, know it but the clock can’t be put back any time soon.

He may well not have been accepted by Caesar, but he was accepted into God’s house for a thanksgiving mass of exoneration.

Innocent enough to be assigned a position of trust and authority when under a progressively darkening cloud of suspicions? He certainly would not have been accepted by Caesar – not even as a wife let alone as an under the counter Minister of Health.

Still the present Police Commissioner should have called John Dalli to the Police HQ for questioning as the other Commissioner John Rizzo intended to do.

But we must remember that John Rizzo was replaced just to have a government puppet at the Police HQ.

A “backbone” wasn’t ever a desirable quality in a Commissioner of Police, appointed during an MLP government, and necessary to ensure a long and distinguished career as Malta’s enforcer of law and order without fear or favour.

When Police Commissioner P. P. Zammit said that there is not enough proof for A CRIMINAL CASE against former Health Commissioner John Dalli, Police Commissioner Peter Paul Zammit was not saying that he did not have any proof whatsoever. He meant that the police did not have the necessary evidence to prove the case beyond any reasonable doubt as would be demanded in the Criminal Court.

In a previous post (He who sups with the devil…etc) I said this:

That strange phone call on 16th October 2012 at 5.00pm Brussels – Hamrun.

I doubt the Commissioner of Police has even read the OLAF report. It was compiled with the help of evidence obtained by the Maltese police.

If he has actually read it, then the statements he made mark him down as an appalling deadbeat in my book.
