Daphne Caruana Galizia, whose reporting focused heavily on corruption on the EU island nation, was killed Oct. 16 when a bomb destroyed her car as she was driving near her home. The two additional suspects are also Maltese, Home Minister Michael Farrugia said. Declining to give details on the arrests, Muscat cited concerns any information could compromise prospects to successfully prosecute the case. Just before her death, Caruana Galizia, 53, had posted on her closely followed blog, Running Commentary, that there were “crooks everywhere” in Malta. Caruana Galizia made plain she didn’t trust the island’s police or judiciary to adequately investigate many of the wrongdoings she alleged.
