Keith Schembri is under investigation for money laundering linked to sales of passports to rich foreigners
Police in Malta have arrested Keith Schembri, the former prime minister Joseph Muscat’s chief of staff, as part of an investigation into money laundering of funds derived from kickbacks on sales of Maltese passports.
Schembri was arrested just after midnight on Tuesday, hours after a court issued an order for all his assets and those of his family and companies to be frozen, police sources confirmed.
