In the article titled Illegal Parking Attendants Take Motorists For A Ride, which appeared on The Sunday Times, Valletta mayor Alexei Dingli was quoted as saying: "We were told not to worry about blocking each other's access because we were all going to leave at the same time. There were some policemen in the area so I did not suspect any foul play".

The quotation was meant to be attributed to one of the drivers who fell for the scam rather than the mayor, who commented later about the action that was taken.

The error is regretted.
