Iz-Zambi did it even though he had served time – plenty of it.

I challenge anyone, anyone who has not served time that is, to walk into the Home Office, sign in at reception and walk straight into the minister’s office or that of his chef de cabinet.

Try it.

Go on.

He should not wait for another attempt on members of the present cabinet unless he believes that these are immune because of some previous associations of the current minister i/c the police when he was defence counsel for potential assassins.

This person must be a bigger fish than Silvio Scerri and one who must have known iz-Zambi in confidence for years.

By making his sworn statement, Silvio Scerri has shown that he won’t be the fall guy for this serious error in judgment (to put it mildly) and won’t take the blame for something which in all probability, he was talked into doing (questions about Insp. Taliana etc.)

Then, the question that has to be answered is: who sought out Daryl Borg through the good offices of iz-Zambi so that he will testify before the Police Board?

Some persons may have built an aura about their professional abilities in the past but this does not necessarily translate into political nous and may be showing great clumsiness in the handling of hot potatoes and even greater clumsiness in covering up the tracks of their manoeuvering.

Incidentally it happens to be particularly stupid to be lying on such a public stage but that is not the point.

His statement that he did not know Iz-Zambi is absolutely irrelevant. It is nothing but a feeble attempt to distract from the evident involvement of Iz-Zambi at the behest of the Gov/Police Minister’s bumbling gang.
