Watch: ‘We Will Be There’ – Emanuel Cuschieri Announces Court Protest If Joseph Muscat Is Charged
PL activist Emanuel Cuschieri announced plans for a protest outside court if Joseph Muscat and others get charged in court in connection with the Vitals magisterial inquiry.
“We have long been hearing people saying ‘Kuraġġ Joseph’ and ‘We stand behind you, Joseph’ and I assure you it is very much appreciated,” Cuschieri said. “However, it is now time to put our words into action.”
“As soon as we have an indication of the date and time that Dr Muscat and others could be charged in this political vendetta, we will be there outside court, in a show of solidarity.”
“The time of Facebook comments is over, now is the moment of truth. If he is charged, we will be physically present outside court, in a civil and calm but determined manner, to show solidarity with Dr Muscat and the others.”
Cuschieri said he wants to live in a “normal country”, where “justice is effective and not twisted into political persecution against successful people”.
“In a civilised and democratic country like ours, protests fall within the realm of normality.”
