Man held in connection with Mosta murder

The police have arrested a man in connection with Wednesday’s murder in Mosta and seized firearms which they suspect could be linked to the shooting. Paul Degabriele, 49, was arrested in connection with the investigation into the murder of 46-year-old Joseph Cutajar, known as Il-Lion. In October, a car bomb was placed beneath Mr Degabriele’s Toyota pick-up truck in Fgura but a neighbour alerted him and it was safely removed. More details in The Times.
