If guilty, he'll probably he'll get a 60euro fine, with our circus courts.

When are men and women going to realize that their partner is NOT their property? Same goes for parents... your children are not your property!

Seem like we are getting more barbaric by the day....similar situations are happening way too often for a little island like ours. Is it just because some people are seriously stuck in the past and are simply cavemen...if something or someone doesnt agree with you ..just clobber it!!???
When is the law going to get serious with these fools...???

If convicted, put him away. These people must be thought a lesson and stop treating women as second class citizens.

No use hoping! It's not about treating women as second class citizens, it's the ridiculous judiciary system in Malta giving lenient and stupid sentences for the past few years, no matter what the case is.
