In a two hour debate on Xarabank yesterday, PN Leader Simon Busuttil did not bring a single shred of evidence forward, PL Deputy Leader Chris Cardona has claimed.

The Prime Minister and the PN Leader met on Xarabank last night, and argued over allegations that the Prime Minister's family is linked to the Panama company, Egrant. Daphne Caruana Galizia, just before the debate, published a text on her personal blog, which she claims to be two declarations of trusts showing that shares in Egrant Inc are held by Mossack Fonseca nominees for “Mrs Michelle Muscat."

Minister Cardona called the 'text' of the document published by Daphne Caruana Galizia, a 'fabrication', and said that evidence does not exist as this "is a frame-up for power."

He said that through SWIFT and IBAN, banks keep records, including those of mobile top-ups, keeping that information for many years. He said that Simon Busuttil is desperate.
