Iċ-Chairperson ta’ Alternattiva Demokratika, Prof Arnold Cassola, qal: “Aħna nikkundannaw b’mod kategoriku l-attentat mill-pulizija li jisfurzaw lill-editur tal-Malta Today, Saviour Balzan biex jiżvela s-sors tiegħu fir-rigward tal-iskandlu taż-żejt. Id-dritt tal-ġurnalisti li ma jikxfux lis-sorsi tagħhom huwa sagrosant.”
