Qala Council receives reports containing “threats” to remove Mayor

Two reports have been made to the clerk of the Qala Local Council, that mentioned “threats” to remove Mayor Paul Buttigieg, the Council said.

In a statement, it said that “all members having read the reports, condemn such threats that were made towards the Mayor,” which the Council said, “were made by a hidden hand in power for their own gain”.

The Council concluded by saying that it “jointly deplores every attempt to remove persons from public positions which were democratically elected.”
