In a video posted on his Facebook page, PN MP Darren Carabott explained details about the alleged ‘Identità scandal’.

The allegations are of several instances of faulty and fraudulent Maltese identity documents issued by public sectors, including driving learner permits, hospital appointments, cheques from the central bank, and social security statements.

Carabott said that these documents were issued to individuals falsely claiming to reside at legitimate Maltese home addresses in order to obtain work permits. He said that errors in ID card numbers, which can result in duplicate identities, have led to personal documents, such as hospital records, being mistakenly assigned to the wrong individuals.

The PN MP further warned that these faulty identity documents could lead to authorities mistakenly entering and searching homes for individuals registered at addresses where they have never lived.

Carabott criticised the government for frequently blaming these errors on the private sector. He argued that this excuse is inadequate since private entities rely on personal information from ID cards issued by the government agency Identità.

The Nationalist MP raised concerns about how the Identity agency allowed 18,000 individuals to enter the country using false information and subsequently obtain identity documents with that same inaccurate data.

As a solution, Carabott proposed the creation of a registry that would allow property owners to verify with the government how many people are registered to live at their property and who they are. He also emphasised that the findings of the internal investigation conducted by Identità should be made public, as it is in the interest of the Maltese people.

At the prestigious Monterey Car Week, luxury automotive brand Lamborghini unveiled the highly anticipated successor to its iconic Huracán model—the Lamborghini Temerario.

This reveal, long awaited by car enthusiasts and industry insiders alike, quickly captivated the audience as the Temerario emerged from beneath a black sheath, effortlessly stealing the spotlight and becoming the talk of the event.

The Temerario marks a significant milestone for Lamborghini, as it will be the final model released by the company before it transitions entirely to producing electric vehicles.

This model is not just a successor in name but represents the culmination of Lamborghini’s legacy of producing high-performance, combustion-engine cars with sleek, aggressive designs.

The design of the Temerario stands out for its refined and smoother lines, a departure from the more sharply defined aesthetics of its predecessors, the Huracán and the Gallardo.

It exudes a sense of modernity and elegance, while still retaining the unmistakable Lamborghini character. Observers noted that the Temerario appears larger and taller than the Revuelto, adding to its commanding presence on the road.

In addition to its striking appearance, the Temerario introduces a host of new features, including an all-new drift mode—a first for Lamborghini.

This innovative addition is set to elevate the driving experience, offering enthusiasts the ability to push the boundaries of the car’s performance like never before.

As Lamborghini prepares to embrace the future of electric mobility, the Temerario stands as a fitting and formidable final chapter in the brand’s storied history of producing legendary combustion-engine vehicles.
