Daphne Caruana Galizia died on 16 October 2017 in Bidnija, in northern Malta, when a bomb exploded in her Peugeot 108. She was fifty-three, with a husband and three kids. She was a renowned journalist who had won the Pulitzer prize for her reporting on money laundering and international tax evasion that linked Malta to the Panama Papers. Her report revealed that Minister Konrad Mizzi and Labour Prime Minister, Joseph Muscat's chief of staff, Keith Schembri, were involved in the scandal, and shed light on a truth that, until today, Europe has chosen to ignore: tiny Malta serves as sort of pirate's cave for rampant tax evasion in the European Union.
