but that was the fall guy, not people in the panama papers.
No, that was literally one of the rich assholes. Daphne Caruana Galizia was reporting on his finacial crimes when he decided that he should just have her killed.
But because that shit does not work like the movies say it does, he and his henchmen all got caught. And since society is not as willing to allow murder as it is financial crimes.
Fenech was CEO of the Tumas Group and a director of energy company ElectroGas Malta; in 2019 he resigned from both positions.[15] On 25 November 2019 Tumas Group, operators of the Malta Hilton hotel, said that allegations linking Fenech to the murder of Daphne Caruana Galizia were "alien to the Tumas Group's values".[16] Group chair and shareholder, Raymond Fenech, and group shareholder Franco Fenech, uncle and brother to Yorgen Fenech,[17] are both implicated in assisting his escape[18] from Malta shortly before his arrest for murder.[19]
Fenech still hasn't gone to trial, but after 5 years in jail he was granted bail. This was not popular, because of the bribery.
