Suspended jail term

A man of Birkirkara was yesterday given a six-month jail term suspended for two years after he admitted to assaulting and threatening police officers last Saturday. Magistrate Doreen Clarke heard Raymond Abela also plead guilty to disobeying police orders, breaching the public peace and having in his possession a pointed instrument without a licence.

Police Inspectors Elton Taliana and Nikolai Sant prosecuted.
