A 22-year-old woman admitted in court today that she threw red paint on the facade of a friend’s house after she didn’t receive a wedding invitation.

The woman said that her fiancé and herself had been good friends with the couple who were marrying.

The two couples had decided to get married two months apart. However her fiancé died in December.

Their friends, who are due to get married in the coming weeks, for some reason had not sent her an invitation and she daubed red paint over the grooms’ house in revenge.

The woman said that she was very sorry for the incident, explaining that she was going through a very bad time. She paid €1,565 in damages to the groom.

Magistrate Consuelo Scerri Herrera ordered a ban on the publication of the names of all parties involved in the case, especially as the woman is seeking psychiatric help.

The woman was placed on probation for two years and ordered not to approach the couple.
