In a bizarre twist that has left many scratching their heads, Peter Fenech—better known as “Peter Peter Panel Beater,” the lawyer for Jeremy Harbinson—was nowhere to be seen in criminal court today. But what’s even more eyebrow-raising than Fenech’s physical absence? The fact that Harbinson, who’s been flouting court orders left, right, and center, didn’t bother dialing in remotely either—despite explicit instructions from Judge Edwina Grima.
Exposing Peter Fenech’s Dual Roles
Fenech’s no-show speaks volumes. Could it be that the “expert” lawyer knew all along that Harbinson would ignore yet another court order? After all, the man whose company pocketed tens of millions of euros from the Maltese courts for “expert services” is hardly a stranger to the court’s wrath. So, why should Fenech, the so-called legal representative of this high-profile player, show up when his client can’t even bother with a simple video call?
One has to wonder: Did Fenech already know that Harbinson wasn’t going to play by the rules today? Or was he just too busy lining up his next set of “expert” reports? Either way, this shameful display of disrespect towards the court by Harbinson is the latest chapter in the ever-growing Vitals Inquiry saga—where it seems that the rules only apply to the defendants.

Did you (Gafa) had any doubt that your panel beater did not know that his Harbinson wasn’t going to play by the rules?.
