Sadly it was a suicide since every news outlet redacted the story

Maltese news never mentions anything as a suicide. Also the tower is owned by the biggest knob in malta, so you will not hear about this.

It’s very sad. Condolences to their family and loved ones.
It’s also kinda strange how the Maltese seem to have a penchant for suicide by jumping from a great height. Dingli Cliffs, Valletta Bastions, that bridge over a valley (I forget which town it is near). Could any Maltese people shed some light on this? I feel suicide in this manner is atypically high here…

Do they not report suicide so they don’t risk copycats?
Or is it something to do with the culture being so highly Catholic? Ax

Sorry to see this. Weighing in as a Canadian Maltese, news outlets here rarely report on suicide either — not sure if it’s out of respect for the family or because they want to reduce the # of “copycat” suicides, or some combo of both. If media in Malta also retracted the story after finding out it was a suicide and not an accident, I assume that media precedent might be why.
