Qala Local Council issued a statement condemning moves to oust the Mayor Paul Buttigieg.
“All the members of the Council read the two reports that were made to the council clerk, in which were mentioned threats to remove the Mayor from his position. The Council condemns such threats that were made towards the Mayor and which threats where made by a hidden hand in power, for their gain. The council also jointly deplores every attempt to remove persons from public positions which were democratically elected”.
