Malta police identify suspected journalist murder masterminds: report

VALLETTA (Reuters) - Investigators have identified a group of at least three Maltese nationals who they believe masterminded the killing of anti-corruption journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia 13 months ago, The Sunday Times of Malta reported on Sunday.

It did not reveal their names, but quoted high-ranking officers leading the murder probe as saying that their investigation was at a “very advanced stage”.

There was no official comment from the police on the report, however, a police source said the story was not right.
