A man who built a boathouse without permission was this morning ordered to remove it by the court in Gozo.

Peter Paul Borg, built a boathouse in Daħlet Qorrot Bay, limits of Nadur, a beautiful shallow diving site.

Mr Borg argued that there were other boat houses in the same area and no proceedings had been taken against their owners. He said his structure was built under soil and was barely visible.

But magistrate Giovanni Grixti found Mr Borg guilty, ordered him to dismantle the boathouse and fined him €58.23 and a further €4.66 per day until the boathouse was removed.
