Ten years after Eleanor Walker was killed, her family is still waiting for a trial date for the man charged with her murder, with her mother renewing her plea for justice, the Daphne Caruana Galizia Foundation said in a statement.

The foundation said that Eleanor Walker was killed on 2 July 2016 and that, a decade later, criminal proceedings remain unresolved, with no trial date yet having been set.

Reflecting on the anniversary of her daughter's murder, Josephine Walker said that it has been 10 years since Eleanor was murdered and nothing has happened for her justice.

"I am begging for justice," she said.

The statement said that days after Walker was killed in a garage in Swieqi, her estranged husband was charged with her murder.

He pleaded not guilty and was remanded in custody, but was granted bail just over a year later.

Since then, he has faced further criminal charges for offences allegedly committed while on bail, including violent theft, the foundation said.

He was released on bail again and remains at liberty pending trial for Walker's murder.

The foundation referred to its October 2025 report, Justice at Risk, saying prolonged criminal proceedings have serious consequences for the criminal justice system.

Delays increase the risk of evidence deteriorating, witnesses' memories fading, accused persons absconding, dying or being declared unfit to stand trial, while evidence may also become inadmissible, the statement said.

Describing the case as "a stark reminder of the human cost of delayed justice," the foundation said ten years without a trial was "intolerable."

"Eleanor, her daughter, and the family and friends she left behind deserve justice now," the statement said.
