Justice Minister says claims by Nationalist MP Jason Azzopardi are completely false

Minister for Justice, Equality and Governance Edward Zammit Lewis categorically and utterly denies what Nationalist MP Jason Azzopardi invented on social media.

Azzopardi’s allegation is completely false and joins a series of false statements that everyone has now heard from this deputy.

Jason Azzopardi had claimed that Edward Zammit Lewis met with Yorgen Fenech’s wife last February.

The minister reiterates that no systematic attack on his personality and character will prevent him from continuing to perform his ministerial duties.

Minister Zammit Lewis will continue to work on historic and unprecedented reforms as agreed with the Venice Commission, with the ultimate goal of further strengthening the rule of law and good governance in our country.
