Two young men who punched a Burger King employee when she prevented them from entering the ladies toilets were placed on probation for three years.
A 17-year-old from Birżebbuġa, who cannot be named because he was a minor at the time, and Marco Rapinett, 25, from Valletta, admitted before Magistrate Antonio Micallef Trigona to slightly injuring Gabriella Cassar on December 26, 2010.
They were making their way to the toilets at the Burger King branch in Valletta when Ms Cassar stopped them and they reacted by punching her.
