The Federation for Hunting & Conservation – Malta (FKNK), on the recommendation of its Disciplinary Board, has cancelled the membership of  Christian Gauci, of Mellieha. 

Mr. Gauci was earlier this week convicted by a court of having been in possession of a shotgun and cartridges in a protected zone, other hunting related illegalities and relapsing. 

"The Board’s recommendation was based on the seriousness of these acts, which the FKNK considers as unacceptable and strongly condemns," the federation said.

A person cannot have his/her hunting licence renewed unless he/she is a member of the FKNK.
