Yorgen Fenech’s release on bail has drawn significant attention, given the high-profile nature of the case. As the suspected mastermind behind the 2017 murder of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, his release comes with several strict conditions. The requirement to deposit €80,000 and provide a personal guarantee of €120,000, as well as his aunt Moira Fenech using her Tumas Group shares as collateral, indicates the seriousness of the bail arrangement.
The specific restrictions, such as staying away from key locations like the coast and airport, and the daily check-in at St. Julian’s Police Station, are likely meant to prevent any further potential interference with the ongoing investigation or trial. His confinement to certain hours of the day indoors further restricts his movement.
