Jean Paul Sofia’s mother Isabelle Bonnici took to social media to release her official statement following parliament’s vote on opening a public inquiry into the death of her son.
The government voted against the opening of a public inquiry, with 40 votes against and 32 in favour with no abstentions.
Isabelle said she is firmly disappointed in the decision by certain members of parliament whilst still vowing to continue her fight for justice for her late son Jean Paul.
The vote led to both social media backlash as well as to a passionate confrontation between Jean Paul Sofia’s loved ones and the government in parliament.
The high levels of anger and frustration within society highlight the dissatisfaction with the government’s handling of the situation, as the public demands a thorough investigation into the tragic incident in order to avoid more workplace fatalities within the construction industry.
