What the Sunday papers say...

MaltaToday reveals a trust agreement between ex-MOBC chief executive Frank Sammut, former Enemalta chairman Tancred Tabone and two private businessmen, Francis Portelli and Anthony Cassar.

The agreement gave each of them a 25% share in a nominee company, Moloch Trading Corporation. However, the company was established in Switzerland and registered in Panama. This suggests that they wanted to keep their partnership secret to hide their private interest in the state-owned Mediterranean Oil Bunkering Corporation.

Sammut, Tabone, Portelli and Cassar are facing criminal charges over corruption, money laundering and trading in influence.
