Magistrate Neville Camilleri jailed Mr Zammit for four years and issued a recommendation to the prison director to place him in a rehabilitation programme.
Mr Fenech was given a three-year probation order.
Ronald Azzopardi, 25, and Gary Mifsud, 28, also from Żabbar, denied the same charges. They were remanded in custody.

When are our judges and magistrates going to learn to tack on a few hours of community service to their Suspended Sentence rulings? These people need some kind of rehabilitation besides the Suspended Sentence and they owe society some kind of apology for their mistakes. Our streets and our beaches need cleaning, some institutes need help, why not assign these misfits to do some of that work?
