KURT SANSONE BRIGADIER Maurice Calleja, a former commander of the Armed Forces of Malta, has died aged 87. He headed the AFM between September 1991 and December 1993, when he resigned after his son Meinrad was arrested and charged with importation of cocaine. In an interview, he gave to TVM's Xtra Sajf last year, Calleja had said it was not to his wish to resign, but the cir- cumstances at the time would have led many to think that there was a conflict of interest. He also denied knowledge of his son's actions. "I was informed of the case by an army officer. I knew noth- ing," Calleja had said. Trained at the Sandhurst Mil- itary Academy in the UK, Calle- ja was specialised in weapons, ballistics and sharpshooting. He was a court ballistics expert for many years. In 1980 Calleja was appoint- ed deputy commander of the newly-formed Task Force, a civilian outfit under military discipline. He was promoted to lieutenant-colonel in 1982 and colonel in 1986. In 1988, Calleja was nominat- ed deputy commander of the AFM and promoted to briga- dier in 1991 when he was ap- pointed commander. After the change in govern- ment in 2013, Calleja headed a board that was set up to con- sider complaints of injustices in the AFM throughout the years. Calleja married Muriel Savo- na in 1961. They had two sons, Meinrad and Patrick, and a daughter, Clarissa.
