I have nominated @daphnefdtn (a project seeking justice for #DaphneCaruanaGalizia’s assassination) for the European Citizen’s Prize.
Its ethos is rooted in European fundamental rights: it strives for the promotion of rule of law, prioritising justice & the end of impunity. pic.twitter.com/iT26pAZlX6— David Casa (@DavidCasaMEP) April 26, 2022
The Daphne Caruana Galizia Foundation is a non-profit, independent NGO created by Daphne’s sons Matthew, Andrew and Paul after the investigative journalist was assassinated in a car bombing in October 2017.
Casa went on to state that the Foundation has been on the frontline against corruption and has been “a trailblazer for civil society capacity-building during a period in our history when civil society played a vital role.”
David Casa is Malta’s longest serving Member of the European Parliament and forms part of the Nationalist Party.
