Two Libyans accused of attempted murder
Two Libyan men were accused of attempted murder today after a fight over a girl in Paceville last night.
The fight took place in Ross Street at about midnight.
Ahmed Musbah, 30, and Ashraf Farawi, 31, were accused of having seriously injured Abu Snaima Bader Mohammed Ouda Ewaid, a Palestinian. He suffered a 20cm gash across his face.
He was allegedly stabbed.
The two Libyans were also accused of unlawful possession of a weapon and harassment. They denied the charges but were remanded in custody.
Drs Jose' Herrera and Veronique Dalli are defence counsel.

"Say no to racism" and "be a tollerant society" seem to be ringing in my ears at the moment. Racism is when you discriminate against a culture, skin colour, race etc for no reason. However, as we can see from our headlines on a daily basis, there seems to be a reason not to want certain people within our society. First and foremost, for possession of a weapon at paceville. What was this guy holding a knife for??...surely not to make hobz biz-zejt on his Satruday night out! Certain people/races have a bad stigma in Malta due to acts like these!
Don't get me wrong...it could be any other non-Maltese who performs acts like these that is not wanted in our society, but unfortunately most of the times it is Libyans who feature in such stories
