Marsaxlokk priest with fraud charges spent thousands on pornography, sources reveal

Aug 19 2022

Marsaxlokk priest Luke Seguna, who is currently facing charges of fraud and money laundering, is reported to have spent close to €148,000 on pornography websites.

Sources close to the investigation told Times of Malta that the priest use large volumes of money on sites that provide live sex sex shows against a fee.

The court ruled that details of the sites will not be divulged following an interjection from defence lawyers José Herrera and Matthew Xuereb that such details were irrelevant to the merits of the case. It is believed that Seguna told investigators that he was facing a “sexual crisis” due to a major health problem during that time.

The 39-year-old parish priest is denying charges of misappropriating around €500,000, donated to him by 150 parishioners in 10 years. Seguna also faces charges of fraud, falsifying a public deed and using falsified documents.

Adrian Delia addresses police shortage; “If we don’t wake up from our slumber it will be too late”

Aug 19 2022

Nationalist Party MP and former leader Adrian Delia took to Facebook on Thursday to address the degrading state of conditions within the Malta Police Force.

Delia wrote that he had visited the Marsa police station five years ago, only to find it closed, with conditions worsening over time to an alarming state. “We are already extremely late… if we do not wake up from this profound slumber, it will be too late!”, the MP stated.

Delia highlighted the police force’s staff shortage, closed stations, degrading office, lowly conditions and less-than-satisfactory training, with little to no investment and lack of armed officers in ‘difficult‘ areas.

Delia is not the first politician or citizen to shine a light on the situation, with multiple fights and other street crimes making the headlines in recent months, and the state of Malta’s police stations & offices remaining an issue.
