The certificate was issued by the Public Registry in Malta.  The death was registered in Malta and the subject was Maltese.  The official languages of Malta today are Maltese and English which is why the headings are in Maltese and English.  However at one time the official language was Italian which would explain why the certificate is in Italian.  Even on some streets you will see the names in three languages.  For example - the main street in the capital Valletta is today called Republic Street (Triq ir-Repubblika in Maltese) but in the past was called Kingsway and Strada Reale.  They know how to complicate things over here  ::).
