Criminal investigations will have to be conducted different- ly from now on, and the black- on-white admission that Malta Security Services can intercept communications without a le- gal basis raises serious ques- tions also for journalists and their sources. The subject of telephone in- tercepts by the Security Ser- vices and their use in criminal proceedings is a hotly disputed one in the human rights sphere. A court decision this week was a reminder that the laws which sanction such investi- gations must, in themselves, be characterised by a lack of transparency, "otherwise there would be no point in them." And the investigations carried out by the security services of every nation would not be se- cret at all if they were to be car- ried out in the ordinary manner as in the case of other ordinary crimes. But Mr Justice Toni Abela this week noted that the Head of the Security Services, Joseph Bugeja, had been summoned to the stand to be questioned about telephone interception warrants on the Degiorgios, the accused in the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia, but had objected to testifying, claiming the law precluded him from doing so. Quoting from several authori- tative textbooks, the court said that every act of governmental power, "that is, every act which affects the legal rights, duties, or liberties of any person must be shown to have a strictly legal pedigree." "From this passage, two im- portant points emerge. That these courts can never be held back from overseeing the ac- tions of the State, even if ordi- nary law expressly provides for this exclusion. In this case, an exclusion such as this must al- ways be taken as pro non scrip- ta. Precisely in connection with a similar complaint, our courts have been clear and unequivo- cal about this point…" So the word of a public official saying they acted legally, is not enough to bring to naught the Landmark ruling on Degiorgio taps reins in MSS but puts in doubt murder evidence Criminal investigations will have to be conducted differently from now on, and the black-on-white admission that Malta Security Services can intercept communications without a legal basis raises serious questions also for journalists PHOTO BY JAMES BIANCHI
