Robert Abela Delivers News Conference After Criminal Charges Filed Against Joseph Muscat and Others

Prime Minister Robert Abela has concluded a press conference.
In a nutshell, Abela:
- Confirmed criminal charges have been filed against people cited in the magisterial inquiry;
- Insisted he does not have a copy of the inquiry;
- Said it is too soon to discuss resignations of officials like Chris Fearne or Edward Scicluna;
- Emphasised that those charged are innocent until proven guilty;
- Poked several, rather specific holes in the inquiry, despite saying he has not read it;
- Said he expects legal challenges to the inquiry and the way it was carried out;
- Shot down suggestions that Muscat has had €30m worth of assets frozen.
It's been short but intense. Here's our coverage of today's key events:

We're all innocent until proven guilty, but most people don't have criminal charges against them.
