Francis Sciberras, who is 64, replaces former Assistant Commissioner Godfrey Scicluna who auto-suspended himself last week after MaltaToday revealed that he would be facing charges for an alleged hit-and-run incident involving an elderly man, who succumbed to his injuries a few days ago.
Scicluna was subsequently removed from his post by Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi.
Francis Sciberras was transferred from customs to the MSS and moved on to be an intelligence consultant to Scicluna and to the Prime Minister and to the minister of home affairs.
Sciberras is also the father of recently appointed Magistrate Natasha Galea Sciberras.
