A drug addict yesterday pleaded guilty to trafficking cocaine and heroin in Ħamrun after he was caught with eight sachets in his pockets.

The prosecution and defence agreed on a 20-month prison term for Clayton Fenech, 25, of Valletta, who was also accused of relapsing. However, Magistrate Natasha Galea Sciberras said she was not bound by this agreement and postponed the case to Tuesday. Mr Fenech was granted bail against a €5,000 personal guarantee.
