| Abstract: | An earth-shattering tremor hit Malta last Tuesday. It was measured at scale 10 of the politico-judicial Richter magnitude scale. This earthquake was provoked by the unlawful leakage of a confidential email addressed by Mr Justice Wenzu Mintoff to the Cabinet Secretary and copied to others, namely the Prime Minister, Deputy PM, justice minister, and President of Malta. The question that must be asked is: did Judge Mintoff breach the Code of Ethics for the Members of the Judiciary in his unprecedented communication with the Cabinet Secretary and the others? |
