Hitman admits to detonating car bomb killing Maltese Journalist
The man accused of assassinating a journalist is dropping the bomb on who else was involved
George Degiorgio says he would have increased the price to carry out her assassination if he knew more about Daphne Caruana Galizia.
The 53-year-old was killed in 2017 after reporting on corruption and political events in Malta.
Degiorgio says rather than accepting the €150,000 payout he received, he would have gone for €10 million instead.
“For me it was just business. Business as usual.”
George Degiorgio
He has apologised for the reporter’s murder. after he and his co-accused brother previously pleaded not guilty to the murder charges.
Degiorgio’s confession comes his lawyers tried to secure a pardon in return for testifying about the murder and other alleged crimes involving prominent Maltese figures.
He has offered to testify about the involvement of two former ministers in an armed robbery.
Yorgen Fenech is the man behind Degiorgio and his two accomplices carrying out the hit.
Fenech is one of Malta’s most prominent businessmen, and has strongly protested he is innocent.
His lawyer says “he at no point wanted, actively searched for or sponsored Caruana Galizia’s assassination.”

Senate upholds vote to release Epstein files despite White House delay attempt; Trump signals intent to sign bill.
The White House tried to delay a vote on the release of Justice Department files connected to Jeffrey Epstein, even as former President Trump insisted there was nothing to hide.
Despite this, the Senate approved the measure exactly as it passed the House, ignoring amendments proposed by Trump’s aides. This move clears the path for the files to be made public in full.
Trump has indicated he intends to sign the bill, marking a significant shift after the White House’s attempt to block or delay the vote proved unsuccessful. The decision could have wide-reaching implications for transparency and ongoing investigations.
