A teacher at the center of an alleged rental contracts racket, Harold Mamo, has claimed that he is illiterate. This astonishing admission was made to the Maltese newspaper Identità, as Mamo faces accusations of providing fake addresses to residence permit applicants.
According to reports, Mamo allegedly offered false rental contracts to individuals seeking residence permits in Malta. These contracts, which were supposedly for apartments that did not exist or were already occupied, were used to support the applicants’ claims of residency in Malta. Mamo’s role in this alleged racket has raised serious concerns about the integrity of Malta’s residence permit system.
The claim of illiteracy made by Mamo is particularly striking, given his profession as a teacher. It is unclear how someone who claims to be unable to read or write could have held a position of authority in the education system. This inconsistency has raised further questions about Mamo’s credibility and the extent of his involvement in the alleged rental contracts racket.
As the investigation into Mamo’s activities continues, it remains to be seen what consequences he will face if found guilty of providing false information to support residence permit applications. The case has highlighted the need for greater scrutiny of the residence permit system in Malta and the importance of ensuring that those involved in the process are acting with integrity.
