The wife of murdered drug trafficker Mario Camilleri reluctantly consented to his body being exhumed on Tuesday to allow investigators to look for further evidence that could convict his killers.
“The police inspector called me and told me they had to exhume him to conduct more investigations. I called my lawyer who said I should allow them.
“I would like to be present when they bury him again. I want to ensure that all is as I left it and that he is buried properly,” said 41-year-old Mona Camilleri, who is seven months pregnant.
Yesterday, timesofmalta.com reported that the body of Mr Camilleri, known as L-Imnieħru, was exhumed on Tuesday to settle a conflict between investigators and medical examiners on the cause of his death.
The story of the exhumation was meant to be printed on yesterday’s front page of Times of Malta. However, due to a technical error, an item entitled Hunt For Second Double Murder Suspect was printed by mistake. The item had already appeared in The Sunday Times of Malta.
Times of Malta apologises unreservedly for the error and for any inconvenience caused.
Mr Camilleri, 51, and his 21-year-old son, Mario Jnr, were buried on Saturday, less than 36 hours...
