Update from the Civil Society Network below – Malta’s National Youth Council, KNZ, and Studenti Demokristjani Maltin (SDM) will both be participating in the National Demonstration for Justice tomorrow.

KNZ said that it urges all Maltese and Gozitan Youth, who believe that justice should prevail, to be present at the capital to make their voice heard, tomorrow, in Valletta at 4pm,

SDM has said that it joins with NGOs and civil society organisations, in calling for justice to be uphold.

SDM added that it believes that in “these serious circumstances, all students should make their voice heard and have a strong voice to bring change.”

SDM is also calling for all students to join tomorrow’s demonstration organised by the Civil Society Network – Malta.

It urges the general public, especially University students, to make use of the transport being organised by KSU – Kunsill Studenti Universitarji which leaves the Quad at 3pm.

Update: The Civil Society Network has said this evening that it would like to make it clear that although political parties have announced their attendance, this civil society event is organised by civil society members and is in no way a partisan event.

It added that, political party, partisan and anti-partisan flags or banners will be strictly prohibited.

The Civil Society Network also pointed out that political party leaders and members of parliament and their spouses/partners, “are not to stay in front part of the march, which will be led by civil society volunteers and speakers.”

“The list of speakers following the march will not include members of parliament,” it said. “We intend to make this a historic national march calling for justice.”
