Cassar told MaltaToday denied that the vehicle in question had been a gift, "because I paid for it". "This was an 11-year old second-hand car which my family bought for my daughter when she turned 18... Mr Gaffarena, who was a family acquaintance, refused the money and asked to donate them to PN. A receipt for the money I paid was issued." The MP said that despite his acquaintance with Gaffarena, "at no point did I ever give him anything untoward, not a licence for his petrol station and certainly not a multi-million compensation for half a property in Valletta. This is something that Joseph Muscat and Michael Falzon must answer for." 28 October • Opposition leader Simon Busuttil stands by Cassar, insisting that the reports on the car purchase are simply a "game to deviate public attention from scandals under the Labour government". "Joe Cassar never gave Gaffarena what he was after, which was a permit for his illegally-built petrol station and exaggerated compensation for the sale of half a house in Valletta," Busuttil told MaltaToday. "Indeed, Gaffarena switched parties and received what he wanted under Labour." "Gaffarena refused to be compensated for the car, but Cassar kept on insisting, until Gaffarena finally told him to pay the money as a donation. No sense of obligation was created, evidenced by the fact that Cassar didn't give Gaffarena what he was after, leading him to switch allegiance. 29 October • In parliament, Cassar alleges that Gaffarena's car and a CCTV system he installed on his house were now part of a frame-up against him, and demands "the protection of the Speaker" against the "threat of blackmail against [his] family". Cassar admits having donated €1,000 to the PN in February 2013 for the 2012 vehicle purchase from Gaffarena, which he said did not want payment for. "Mr Joe Gaffarena would always ask to meet with me because in me, he found somebody ready to listen to him. He cried to me when the Nationalist government prohibited him from opening a petrol pump station he [extended] illegally. He would tell me his family had nothing to live from," Cassar said of his relationship with Gaffarena, formerly a car importer. for works at Cassar's house the Gaffarenas acquired the car, li- censed PEU307, on 9 March 2012; two weeks later, Cassar's wife Anna Maria became the vehicle's fifth dif- ferent owner. Then on 22 June 2015 – three weeks after news of the Old Mint Street expropriation scandal broke – Cassar sold the hatchback to an Qormi auto-dealer. That same day, the car was re-sold to a Marsa man. But auto-dealers contacted by Mal- taToday said that the Peugeot 307 by far exceeds the €1,000 the former minister donated to the PN: the top- or-the-range hatchback cost some €21,000 back in 2001, and on today's used-car market would fetch any- thing between €5,000 and €6,000. A quick look at online adverts showed that Peugeot 307s of the same calibre and age fetch up to €5,600. Former whistleblower In 2007, Cassar played a crucial role in unearthing a scandal involv- ing the then health minister Louis Deguara's assistant private secretary, when a client of his told him that he was told to pay bribes just so that he could be medically "boarded out" from the civil service. The minis- ter's aide, Thomas Woods, was duly sacked but poignantly, these gifts in- cluded "rabbits and fish". It turned out that it was 71-year- old Saverin Sinagra, of Zejtun, who would collect Lm600 payments to hand them over to Thomas Woods, to direct people as to how to ob- tain an invalidity pension in just six months. jbalzan@mediatoday.com.mt PHOTO CHRIS MANGION Joe Gaffarena at the J.Gaff petrol pump station
