Opposition leader Adrian Delia has filed a report with the Police Commissioner calling for Nexia BT’s Karl Cini to be investigated.

The Opposition leader said it was clear from the Egrant Inquiry Report that there could be a prima facie case of a false oath being taken.

The government and ministers, including leadership hopefuls Chris Fearne and Robert Abela, had known of the contents of the inquiry for months but did not do anything. Instead, they protected criminality and ensured that the truth remained hidden.

On Sunday, Dr Delia gave the police a two-day ultimatum to launch the investigating saying he would call upon them to do it himself unless they did.

On Tuesday, he said the Nationalist Opposition was determined to take the country out of the crisis Labour had put it in, in the best interests of the people, for justice to be done and for the Maltese and Gozitans to learn the truth.

In a statement, the Malta Police Force said all recommendations and conclusions are "being actively investigated" by police or, Inquiring Magistrates or other competent authorities. 

It said this included the relationship between the prime minister's former chief of staff Keith Schembri and Mr Tonna;  Mr Schembri and former Allied Newspapers Managing Director Adrian Hillman; the Pilatus Bank investigation; and the Investigations with regards to the company 17 Black and its relationship with Hearnville Inc. and Tillgate Inc.
 
"While the Malta Police would like to give further details about its work, such details cannot be given at the moment as these would either be of a detriment to the ongoing investigations, or the Malta Police is legally bound by secrecy not to revel such details," it said.
