Attorney General Peter Grech has handed Adrian Delia a full copy of the Egrant inquiry report, hours after the Opposition leader won a constitutional court case against him.

Grech had refused to immediately grant Delia a copy of the report, arguing that he had two days to comply with the court’s decision, but he has now handed him over a copy.

Delia has repeatedly pledged to publish the full inquiry, while Prime Minister Joseph Muscat has said he is in favour of its publication but that some parts may have to be redacted so as not to prejudice ongoing police investigations and to avoid revealing private details of people who are not in public life and who have no relation to the case.

The inquiry, conducted by magistrate (now judge) Aaron Bugeja, concluded that there was no evidence to back up Daphne Caruana Galizia’s allegation that Egrant belonged to his wife and that it had received large sums of money from the ruling family of Azerbaijan through a bank account at Pilatus Bank.

Bugeja also found that signatures of a Mossack Fonseca nominee director on alleged declarations of trust, which had been presented to the magistrate by former Malta Independent editor Pierre Portelli, had been forged.
