It’s “Malesi” not “Maltesi” see the link:

It is presumed that they will now be doing time.

If they were the type to listen to, or watch foreign news, they would have been aware that the Guardia di Finanzia are currently carrying out thorough investigations all over Italy, and even stopping people in luxury cars, who have to prove that their tax declarations tally with such expenditures.

Of course, being Maltese, they are used to Ministers having half a million Euros in cash at home, and others having a loan of close to million Euros whilst claiming they earn a minimum wage.

That’s the real tragedy.
