Daphne Caruana Galizia, one of Malta's best known investigative journalists, was killed after a powerful blast blew up her car. Caruana Galizia was "highlighted by politics website Politico as one of 28 individuals who would have a major impact on Europe in 2017". She often wrote against untransparency and corruption in Malta. Her popular blog "Running Commentary," was one of the most influential within Maltese politics and was a leading factor in Muscat calling early elections four months ago after she alleged that the Prime Minister and his wife were linked to the Panama Papers scandal. The couple denied the allegations, rejecting accusations they had used secret offshore bank accounts to hide payments from the ruling family of Azerbaijan.
