Lorin Scicluna blamed Lassane Cisse murder on co-accused, court hears Jurors heard that Lorin Scicluna cried endlessly and insisted he was not the shooter in the 2019 murder of Lassane Cisse INVESTIGATORS in the mur- der of Lassane Cisse, told a jury on Saturday that accused Lorin Scicluna named Francesco Fenech as the person who fired the fatal shots. Police Constable Sven Sam- mut, who was part of the hom- icide investigation, testified how officers came to suspect Scicluna. Scicluna is on trial for Cisse's murder, apart from other se- rious charges. The trial of his co-accused, Francesco Fenech, has yet to be held. Investigators had examined modifications to the Toyo- ta Starlet seen near the crime scene and, after suspecting Sci- cluna might own it, attempted to locate the vehicle near the AFM barracks in Safi. They did not see it during that attempt. Sammut told the court that police later searched Scicluna's home and garage, where they found black tape and stickers allegedly used to modify the vehicle after the crime. He also described how Sciclu- na's account of events changed during a journey with police officers. Initially, Scicluna told investigators that he had lent the Toyota Starlet to a Libyan man. Police had visited the pastiz- zeria in Attard where Scicluna worked part-time before going to his garage in Paola, where he claimed the car had been re- turned to him. According to Sammut, inves- tigators began to doubt this explanation. Scicluna was then taken to Delimara, where he al- legedly showed officers where he had discarded ammunition connected to the case, saying he had done so to avoid being linked to the crime. Sammut testified that Sciclu- na was crying and repeatedly insisted he had not been the shooter. During the journey back to police headquarters, he told officers: "I did not shoot, but Francesco Fenech did." Sammut said he was not in- volved in the subsequent inves- tigation into Francesco Fenech. He also told jurors that the firearms found during search- es were in Scicluna's bedroom, while only keys were found in the car. Sergeant Jeffrey Gerada, who also accompanied Scicluna during the journey, testified that Scicluna began crying at the garage in Paola, while his lawyer, Jason Azzopardi, urged him to tell the truth and allow justice to be done. Gerada said he repeatedly asked Scicluna who had fired the shots. Scicluna allegedly responded that he did not want to send the other person to prison, before eventually nam- ing Fenech as the shooter. Gerada confirmed during cross-examination that Fenech was arrested the following day, at his home in Marsaskala, where he was in the courtyard with his father. The sergeant said Fenech was quiet when presented with the arrest warrant, in contrast to Scicluna, who had been crying. The court also heard testimo- ny about Scicluna's firearms li- cences. A police officer told the jury that he had been licensed as a Target Shooter A and Tar- get Shooter B, with authorisa- tion for four pistols and a rifle. The licences were valid until the end of 2018, and the of- ficer explained that renewals required insurance and shoot- ing-club membership, along- side the relevant procedures and checks. During cross-examination, the officer said licences for three pistols had been trans- ferred on 26 April 2019, appar- ently after an application to re- new them together. The court heard that Francesco Fenech was not registered with the police for firearms and did not hold a firearms licence. The trial was adjourned until Monday.
