Antoinette Fava claims to have been assaulted by prison 'queen' Josette Bickle
Antoinette Fava, 61, has claimed that she had been assaulted by Josette Bickle, however despite filing a police report, no action has been taken against the Corradino prison 'queen'.
In December, Josette Bickle had been sentenced to 12 years' imprisonment and fined €23,000, after being convicted by a jury for trafficking of drugs in prison.
Fava told Sunday newspaper Illum that she lives in a street which is renowned for drug trafficking. She says that she has photographic evidence of such illegal activities and one of the photos seen by the newspaper shows Bickle with a group of men outside a bar in Msida.
Inmate witnesses described Valletta-born Bickle, 40, as the "queen", managing to traffic drugs through the aid of warders, and getting inmates in debt with her to be her personal slaves.
Julia Farrugia is a former editor of Illum newspaper.

I am placing bets with my family and friends what incident has to happen for the police to take action on the report lodged to the police by Fava. -
The proposals vary from something happening to Fava or Bickle, change in government, new police commissioner and other ideas.
