Police Commissioner John Rizzo has filed a suit against the editors of the Malta Today Sunday and Midweek newspapers claiming that an article published last Wednesday was libellous and defamatory.

Mr Rizzo filed the suit against Malta Today editor Saviour Balzan and Matthew Vella as the editor of Malta Today Midweek.

He claimed that the article entitled I'm Waiting, signed by Mr Balzan and published on May 9, was libellous and held both Mr Balzan and Mr Vella liable in damages.
