The Malta Independent reports businessman Yorgen Fenech saying insisting "the truth will come out". The newspaper also quotes Prime Minister Joseph Muscat saying he will only speak about the road ahead after the murder investigation is closed. 

In-Nazzjon leads with leads with comments by Opposition leader Adrian Delia saying instead of a government that leads an investigation properly, the country has a government that should be under investigation itself.
