Hamrun Spartans raise awareness following Dembska’s murder
Jan 8 2022 Share

‘Paulina Dembska’s murder is a wake-up call for Maltese society’ read the caption of a newly released video by Hamrun Spartans Football Club. 

The awareness-raising video acknowledged the tragedy as being a pivotal moment we must use in Maltese society to no longer tolerate abuse on women. 

Players from the team adorned their face with a streak of red lipstick, signifying their support to the movement and the action needed to stop such atrocities. 

‘No one thinks it’s all men’ the video quoted, ‘it’s enough men […] Spartans, let’s do our part.’ 

The tragedy which took the life of Polish 29-year-old Paulina Dembska shook the entire island after she was found murdered in Sliema just after New Year’s. The prime suspect Abner Aquilina was later arrested but interrogations were halted after he was taken to Mount Carmel Hospital for further inspection.

Tennis star Novak Djokovic facing deportation from Australia

Jan 7 2022 Share

World tennis number one, Novak Djokovic will be facing a hearing next Monday to see whether he will be deported from Australia or not. The Serb arrived in Australia last Wednesday to try and defend his Australian Open championship. He wasn’t allowed to leave the airport due to insufficient documentations and as he didn’t “provide appropriate evidence” of double vaccination or a medical exemption.

There has been many speculation whether the anti-vax Novak Djokovic would be allowed to particpate. All questions were supposedly answered when the player joyfully announced that he had gained an unexpected medical exemption to play.

The 34-year old is currently being kept in the Park Hotel in Melbourne, with his mother stating that her son is struggling to sleep in the “terrible accommodation”. Many of his fans have also gathered outside of his hotel to show their support for their favourite tennis player.

The player’s father has come out with some statement saying “This has nothing to do with sports, this is a political agenda. Novak is the best player and the best athlete in the world, but several hundred million people from the west can’t stomach that.”

Paulina Dembska’s name added to University bench in remembrance of victims of gender-based violence

Paulina Dembska's name added to University bench in remembrance of victims of gender-based violence
Jan 7 2022 Share

After falling victim to a brutal murder on January 2nd, Polish language student and beloved member of the community Paulina Dembska’s name has been etched on a University bench which remembers victims of gender-based violence.

In 2020, the University Student Council KSU had installed the bench on the Quadrangle with the aim of raising awareness on gender-balance violence and remembering the women who fell victim to such acts. The names of these brave women are etched and immortalised on the bench, which was painted purple to increase awareness on domestic violence.

In a recent post on KSU’s page, the council rightfully stated that “violence against women and girls remains, one of the most widespread, persistent and devastating human rights violations in our world” and “Paulina’s senseless killing must not be forgotten.”

RIP Paulina.
