Sergeant Lee Roy Balzan Engerer stands accused of deleting part of the police arrest report. 

That is because his accusers don&#039;t have the courage, decency and honesty to say that the real reason for his arrest is that they suspect him of leaking information to the media. 

This is disgraceful.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[And Times of Malta&#039;s law report conveniently left the Engerer surname out.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Don&#039;t jump to conclusions. When Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando appears in court, his name is given as Jeffrey Pullicino, which is his proper name at law. You can&#039;t just appropriate a surname, even if it is your mother&#039;s. You have to be registered with it at birth.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Didn&#039;t know that. I guess its difficult to grasp what people like you in the public eye deal with, unless we walk in your shoes. Thanks for clearing that up.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Engerer family is a very big one.  

Cyrus&#039;s and Lee Roy&#039;s used to be called ta&#039; Doddy and they lived at 106 St. Trophimus Street, Sliema.  

As you said, Cyrus and Le Roy are cousins.  

The Engerer family didn&#039;t want Lee Roy&#039;s mother Caroline to marry Balzan who is Lee Roy&#039;s father, hence Lee Roy&#039;s surname Balzan Engerer - because they considered him a hamallu.

However Caroline still married Balzan whose first name I cannot remember.  

Id-Doddy and his entire family used to canvass for Michael Refalo and thanks to him, many of the Engerers were given jobs with various government departments over the years.  Lee Roy&#039;s father was employed as a messenger with the Minister of Tourism, then in Republic Street, Valletta.  

Balzan, used to support the Malta Labour Party but because of his marriage to one of the Engerers together with the job he was given (he was illiterate) he said he voted for the Nationalist Party.  

Lee Roy&#039;s parents have been separated for a very long time for reasons unknown to me.  

After many years of canvassing for Michael Refalo they turned on to Francis Zammit Dimech.  Since they are a numerous family, together with their close friends, both Michael Refalo and Francis Zammit Dimech needed them in order to acquire their votes.  

Caroline&#039;s brother Albert, who died about two years ago, was very popular and charismatic and managed to persuade many people to vote for both those mentioned before.  No wonder they got whatever they wanted from the government.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - And that would be why the Nationalist Party is so sure that he has been framed.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[here&#039;s some more interesting info for you Daphne...as you well know, there was also a Police Inspector involved, one who is currently on forced leave due to tempering with evidence on the crime scene.....he was not the district inspector so why did he get involved, and more importantly, why wasn&#039;t he arraigned like Serg. Engerer?  Was it maybe because his sister (the Inspector&#039;s) is the partner of Paul Sheehan? surprise surprise....what a tangled web we weave...gawdi issa poplu GAHAN!
