VALLETTA (Reuters) - The Maltese government's former chief of staff has been arrested and faced a second day of questioning on Wednesday as part of an investigation into the murder of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia, police sources said.
Keith Schembri, a close friend of Prime Minister Joseph Muscat, resigned on Tuesday after he was named by businessman Yorgen Fenech as a "person of interest" in the investigation, the sources said. [nL8N2861PP]
