A mission to inform - Daphne Caruana Galizia speaks out (2020)

The last recorded interview with Daphne Caruana Galizia 6 October 2017 (Abridged version)

Daphne Caruana Galizia, Malta’s foremost investigative journalist, was killed on 16 October 2017 in a targeted car bomb attack near her home. Her reporting focused incisively on members of Malta’s political and business elite and allegations of corruption, money laundering and organised crime. In this interview, recorded 10 days before her death, she spoke about facing multiple defamation lawsuits and of living in a “climate of fear” because of threats and acts of violence. She characterised her situation as “one woman with a blog” against the “constant propaganda” of a powerful political machine. At the time of publication her murder remains unresolved.
