The death threat sent to Franco Debono, tabled in parliament by the MP.
"Bring down the government and you will go down with it forever. Signed Ku Klux Klan."
Written in stenciled typography, this is the letter that was sent to government MP Franco Debono at his office in Zurrieq. Received by mail, the letter included a shotgun cartridge in the envelope which was also tabled in the House.
An impression of the base of the cartridge was imprinted underneath the note later on, since the cartridge itself could not be laid on the table of the House.
After Debono revealed the death threat in parliament, Speaker Michael Frendo asked Police Commissioner John Rizzo to investigate the matter. He also requested the Commissioner to provide Debono with personal protection.
Meanwhile, the Police Commissioner has so far failed to reply to this newspaper's questions, requesting whether an investigation into the matter has commenced and whether protection has been granted to the MP.

To mail a CD to someone else I had to seal it in front of a Postal Officer, who then authenticated the contents with a postal seal. An envelope containing anything like a shotgun cartridge would or should not pass through normal mail.

These threats are unacceptable in a democratic state. I suspect that GonziPN and the Police are colluding in this matter. GonziPN condemn what happened in the 80's regarding Police brutality and now they do not see that the same brutality has increased in doing nothing when a crime might be done. I say to Franco Debono, take heart the only stance a member of Parliament took against a Government was Mintoff - you have the gusts similar to this great statesman. Be proud.

Mela lil Daphne bil-pulizija wara l-bieb biex tkompli tinsolenta u tibulija lil min mhux Nazzjonalist ta GonziPN, u Dr Franco Debono,elett mill-poplu, li gie mhedded,ghal dan noqghodu nilghabu bil-bzallu! Nissugerixxi li Dr Debono biex imur joqghod bieb ma bieb Daphne jew ma RCC: xejn xejn ikollu ghassa free! Standards Ewropej fejn jaqbel biss lill-klikka ta GonziPN?

Dr F Debono you sacrificed a lot to try to reform justice and home affairs.The party can never win without you.Your name will not be forgotten,because you are a born leader.

As far as I know postal articles sent to MPs are checked and inspected by Maltapost. So how, may I ask, the envelop containing a shotgun cartridge could have every reached Franco Debono through the post. Why is it that Franco Debono did not lay on the Table the envelope in which he allegedly received the threat? Was it passed on to the Police at least?

Il-PN tkellem hana fuq il-biza tal-passat, spara u glied u sewwa jghidu li min jobzoq fis-sema jerga jigi f'wiccu!!

Minjaf ghala ghandha interess kbir din il-persuna biex jibqa GonziPn fil-gvern? Dawn it-tip ta nies f'Malta ghandha tispicca. J'Alla biex din il-persuna iffissata fuq GonziPN ghal interessi personali taghha tinstghab u jiehu dak li haqqu tghalli mhux thalli lil haddiehor jesprimi l-oppinjoni tieghu kif irid.
