JPO, Evarist Bartolo call on Police to investigate suspected ‘phone tapping’
MPs Evarist Bartolo and Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, co-signatories on the divorce bill, have filed a police report stressing their suspicion that their mobile phones may be tapped.
In a statement, the ‘Yes’ For Divorce Movement, of which both MPs form part, said that both MPs were on the phone at 8.40 p.m. yesterday following an activity held by the movement when they heard a whirring sound and the mobile connection was cut off.
"This gives rise to the suspicion that their conversation was being tapped," the Movement said.
"Both M.P.s and the movement consider this to be a potentially serious matter and a formal complaint has been made to the Commissioner of Police this afternoon. A thorough investigation would be in order."
