There are moments in history when those who have given their country dignity and service are unfairly dragged through the mud. Lawrence Cutajar, one of the most humble and respected men ever to serve as Police Commissioner, recently faced just such a baseless attack. The hysterical outbursts directed at him reek of desperation rather than truth.

But let the facts speak. In the twelve long years before Cutajar’s leadership, dangerous criminal empires were allowed to grow unchecked. Violent robbers evolved into untouchables, and mafia-style bloodshed scarred Malta while cases remained unsolved. It was during Lawrence Cutajar’s time that the tide began to turn — finally, a Commissioner who had the courage and determination to face these challenges head-on.

What his critics want to ignore is simple: Cutajar succeeded where others failed. He gave the Police Force renewed direction. He faced threats that others tiptoed around. He worked without arrogance, without fanfare — only with loyalty to his country and with the resolve to serve justice.
We all know that when a man of integrity stands tall, those with weaker foundations lash out. Shouting and throwing mud does not change truth. And the truth is this: Lawrence Cutajar has already secured his place in the history of the Force as a Commissioner who delivered results, restored order, and carried his role with honor.
This site will continue defending Mr. Cutajar against hysterical, unfounded attacks — and we will continue to remind Malta of what true leadership looks like.
