Wasn’t the reporter behind the Panama Papers killed by a car bomb?
- dredmorbius 9y agos/the/a/ Panama Papers and the ICIJ are a very large effort. But yes, a Maltese reporter, Daphne Caruana Galizia, who worked on Panama Papers (about 80 reporters in total) was assassinated by car bomb in Malta last month. ICIJ are now over 200 journalists. https://www.icij.org/blog/2017/10/investigative-malta-journalist-killed-bomb-blast/ https://www.icij.org/blog/2017/10/investigative-malta-journa...

- toyg 9y agoThere is a misunderstanding: Daphne Caruana Galizia was the leading journalist on the Panama Papers in Malta. The main source for the PP revelations was the Süddeutsche Zeitung (same guys as this time) and lot of other people were involved all over the world; Caruana Galizia was only one of them, not "the" person. As far as I know, no reporter from the SZ, the Guardian and other ICIJ members was harmed after the PP revelations. Malta is a very shady place, very close to Southern Italy for political culture.
