The Marsascala local council claimed the in-Nazzjon editorial published on 22 January, entitled Anqas muntanji ta’ skart, u anqas irwejjah f’Wied il-Ghajn (Fewer mountains of waste, and less bad odours in Marsascala), is libellous.
Dr Michael Sciriha and Dr Joanne Vella Cuschieri yesterday filed a libel suit against in-Nazzjon editor John Zammit accusing him of making defamatory comments against the Marsascala local council.
