Prime Minister Joseph Muscat this morning paid tribute to Raymond Caruana on the 31st anniversary of his death.

Caruana, then 27, was shot dead while at a Nationalist Party club in Gudja.

Unknown assailants had fired 13 machine gun bullets at the PN club.

At the time, Pietru Pawl Busuttil was accused of the murder after the weapon was planted in his Safi farmhouse. He was later absolved of all accusations with the court confirming he was the victim of a frame-up.
