1.	Not having enough evidence does not mean that Dalli did not do anything illegal. It just means there is not enough evidence to prove it.  

2.	It is obvious that the Police Commissioner decided not to investigate further and hence not to seek any potential evidence.  For example, was Dalli interrogated upon his return to Malta?  

3.	Even if there was no wrongdoing by Dalli (which is most unlikely),  there were sufficient POLITICAL reasons for Barroso to ask for his resignation.  For the Commission to retain its credibility, it cannot afford to have one of its commissioners with so many doubts cast upon him.]]></description>

What fine, twisted morals from this woman. 

MEPs should stand up for justice. They should stand up for what is right. 

But I wouldn&#039;t expect her to know this. She&#039;s Maltese after all.]]></description>

Exactly.  Also the Attorney General can never exonerate any body from &#039;any wrong doing&#039; except on a specific scenario and based on information in hand.  Its not as if the Attorney General or the Commissioner of Police are Dalli&#039;s conscience.]]></description>
