Daphne Caruana Galizia and Ana Garrido Ramos winners of 2018 Anti-Corruption Award
\nTransparency International proudly announces that the late Maltese journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia and Spanish whistleblower and campaigner Ana Garrido Ramos have been selected as winners of the 2018 Anti-Corruption Award. The awards were presented at a ceremony at the 18th International Anti-Corruption Conference (IACC) in Copenhagen this evening.<\/p>\n

Daphne Caruana Galizia\u2019s son Matthew and husband Peter collected her award. Matthew Caruana Galizia said: \u201cThe bomb that took Daphne away from us extinguished the most powerful voice we ever had in our country\u2019s fight for integrity. It also sought to rob us of the hope that her unwavering voice represented. Nothing will ever compensate for the journalist \u2013 let alone the person \u2013 we lost in her fight against corruption. But this award reminds us not only that hope remains ours to keep but that a large part of the world is hoping with us. It is an overwhelming and deeply emboldening thought for everyone fighting to win her justice and uphold her legacy. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through her reporting, Daphne Caruana Galizia exposed corruption scandals involving influential politicians and others in Malta and abroad. Since her murder on October 16th, 2017, Maltese authorities have initiated criminal proceedings against her alleged killers, and an inquiry into whether anyone else should be charged.<\/p>\n

Ms Caruana Galizia\u2019s family have asked the government of Malta to establish a public inquiry to investigate whether the Maltese state bears any responsibility for her death, either through its failure to protect her or as a result of any state complicity…..Transparency<\/a><\/p>\n
