Right after his death, Sofia’s family constantly demanded for a public inquiry to be opened to investigate the circumstances of his death.“Though his wings were never given the chance to take flight, his spirit remains as boundless and bright as the sky he longed to conquer,” wrote Għal Jean Paul on social media.Prime Minister Robert Abela launched a public inquiry into his death following months of lobbying, a petition, and public pressure. The public inquiry’s conclusions exposed several systemic issues in the building industry and held the state accountable for supervisory shortcomings at the collapse site that might have saved Jean Paul’s life.A criminal case is ongoing against five people who were charged with involuntary homicide. A civil case is also ongoing with the support of the Public Interest Litigation Network.Tag a friend to go to the exhibition with them•
