Abela: Cardona will resign
PL deputy leadership
But no confirmation yet Chris Cardona has
submitted resignation to Labour Party
KURT SANSONE
CHRIS Cardona has not yet sub-
mitted his resignation from deputy
leader despite Robert Abela asking
him to do so.
The Labour Party has not yet re-
ceived Cardona's resignation de-
spite the Prime Minister, yesterday
morning telling MaltaToday that
the deputy leader would be stepping
down "in the coming hours".
PL sources said Cardona is refus-
ing to step down over claims made
in court that he was implicated in
Daphne Caruana Galizia's murder.
The former minister
has denied the claims.

FORMER prime minister Joseph Mus-
cat has refused to comment when asked
point blank whether he thought his ex
chief of staff Keith Schembri was in-
volved in Daphne Caruana Galizia's
murder.
Muscat said it was up to the court to
make such decisions. He also refused
to comment on Chris Car-
dona's alleged involve-
ment.
