Hi,
There are caverns in Malta but I very much doubt the stories you
attached to your e-mail. Since I live here and interest myself in
these types of things, like UFOs, etc, I would have heard about
such places if they existed and Malta isn't very big so it would be
very difficult not to come across these caverns.
Regards,
JJ Mercieca
