Jean Paul Sofia’s mother nominated for European Citizen’s Prize

Mar 27 2023

MEP candidate Peter Agius has nominated Jean Paul Sofia’s mother, Isabelle Bonniċi, for European Citizen Prize.

‘This is in support for more construction site security and towards a public inquiry into the incident that took the life of Jean Paul’ wrote Agius. ‘I call on you all to support this nomination.’

The European Citizen’s Prize was launched by the European Parliament in 2008 to recognise exceptional achievements by Europeans.

‘The jury will pay special attention to projects showing solidarity amongst citizens in the European Union and beyond.’

Jean Paul Sofia was tragically killed in December of 2022 during the collapse of a three-story building in Kordin. The death sparked not only a controversy into infrastructural issues on the island but also protests calling for transparency due to the inquiry into his death not being made public.

The fan seemingly caused some problems during the match, leading to the police having to intervene and show the man the way out of the premises.

At a point, the Maltese football supporters could be heard chanting in favour of Malta to taunt the man. It is unclear what exactly led to the man having to be escorted out.

Sliema council raises concerns over groups of fighting teens

Mar 27 2023

Tas-Sliema Local Council shared footage to social media to raise concern about groups of teenagers who have been ‘vandalizing street furniture, being excessively loud and even fighting between themselves in Bisazza street.’

The local council uploaded a video which was taken and uploaded with the consent of one of the Sliema residents living in the area.

It shows a large group of teenagers seemingly encouraging members of the group to fight each other.

‘The residents have been very concerned about these incidents and have contacted the Sliema Police, who although have responded to numerous calls, unfortunately, do not have the necessary manpower to deal with such a large number of teenagers.’

The council appealed to the competent authorities to enforce the law and protect the residents from ‘this constant nuisance.’

‘We hope that the authorities will not wait for a serious incident to happen before action is taken.’
