Prime Minister Robert Abela took to Facebook to announce that he had received Judge Valenzia’s report on the Ħal Safi Barracks drug theft earlier in the day and published it immediately.
He acknowledged that while the theft had sparked significant discussion, some had sought to politicise the incident, using it as an opportunity to attack the Government, Minister Byron Camilleri, the Armed Forces, and the Police.
Abela stated that the report confirmed arrests were made within 48 hours, court proceedings had commenced, and Judge Valenzia’s inquiry cleared Minister Camilleri of any political responsibility.
He added that the Armed Forces of Malta (AFM) are addressing the failures, with all necessary disciplinary measures expected to follow.
In response, the Nationalist Party (PN) issued a statement clarifying that it had never suggested Minister Byron Camilleri was personally involved in the theft, sarcastically noting that “no one in Malta or Gozo is calling for his resignation because he was supposed to be on guard duty watching over a container full of drugs.”
However, the PN stressed that national security remains the direct responsibility of Robert Abela’s Government and Home Affairs Minister Byron Camilleri.
The party insisted that Camilleri is ultimately accountable for the breakdown within the AFM’s command structure and continues to symbolise national insecurity, reiterating calls for him to assume political responsibility.

Archbishop Emeritus Paul Cremona has passed away at the age of 79.
Born in Valletta on 25 January 1946, Mgr Cremona served as Archbishop of Malta from 26 January 2007 until his resignation on 18 October 2014, making way for Archbishop Charles Scicluna.
The Church announced that Mgr Cremona died on Tuesday at 11:55 pm at Mater Dei Hospital.
Archbishop Scicluna expressed deep sorrow, entrusting “such a faithful and loving pastor to the mercy of the Good Shepherd.” His passing was announced on Wednesday, coinciding with the feast of St Joseph.
The Church and the State will organise a funeral for the late bishop.
Prime Minister Robert Abela described him as a kind-hearted priest who led with humility, while Opposition leader Bernard Grech said he was known for his kind words and example.
Tributes also came from the Dominicans in Vittoriosa, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, and his nephew Marco, who described him as “dedicated, warm-hearted, and loving till the very end.”
Metsola called him a “man of the people” who quietly dedicated his life to helping others.
In 2019, Mgr Cremona celebrated 50 years in the Church. May he rest in peace.
