Britons accused of robbing, assaulting each other
A 25-year-old man was today charged with stealing more than €23 from a 61-year-old Englishman, while the 61-year-old was charged with indecently assaulting him.
Garie Charles a British national living in St.Paul’s Bay pleaded not guilty to stealing over €23 from William Davidson who is also from St. Paul’s Bay.
Mr Davidson pleaded not guilty to indecently assaulting Mr Charles at the same time. Magistrate Consuelo Scerri Herrera after taking into account the nature of the charges, ordered Mr Charles not to leave his house unless for work against a personal guarantee of €2,000.
Mr Davidson was remanded in custody pending testimony by witnesses in the first hearing.

How can we judge a person as guilty, unless proven to be so! Do not judge unless you want to be judged later?

Mr, Schembri
Would you be happy if someone robbed you of e23, or you would turn the other cheek and give the culprit another e23 so you be sure he is happy,
I know e23 is not the great train robbery but a crime is a crime, and if he keeps offending send him packing back to his dear old Briton.

Don't the police and courts have anything better to do? 23 euros is Lm10 for heaven's sake and indecent assault, for all we know, might be a twisted euphemism for touching his posterior!
