Water Services Corporation chairman Michael Falzon yesterday filed another libel suit against a Labour member of parliament.

Mr Falzon filed the suit against Labour MP Joe Sammut and the editor of the newspaper l-orizzont Frans Ghirxi over the article Konflitt Serju ta' Interess (serious conflict of interest) published in Monday's paper.

He claimed that the article contained libellous material.

Last week Mr Falzon filed a libel suit against Labour MP Joe Mizzi and Alexander Farrugia as the editor of It-Torca. He also filed a judicial letter against Labour leader Alfred Sant and the editors of four news media - l-orizzont, The Malta Independent, maltastar.com and One News - over articles containing allegations made in a statement released by Dr Sant.

Lawyers William Cuschieri and Adrian Delia signed the writs.
