A 54-year-old man and his 17-year-old son, from Cospicua, were this morning conditionally discharged after they admitted in court to slightly injuring a man who had an affair with a woman who is the partner and mother respectively of the accused.
The two admitted that they whipped him with a horse whip, slightly injuring him.
The case happened in June 2010 in Cospicua.
They were conditionally discharged for a year and ordered not to approach the victim for six months.
