Italian gambler Domenico Furfaro was given another suspended jail term this morning after last week he admitted to defrauding the Casino di Venezia.
Yesterday the 35-year-old was given a two-year jail term suspended for four years for defrauding businessman Victor Sciriha, who is also president of the Valletta football club, of €10,000.
This morning Mr Furfaro, who had admitted to having a gambling problem, was handed down another suspended jail term - again two years suspended for four - for defrauding the casino.
Magistrate Audrey Demicoli heard Mr Furfaro admit to stealing six cheques from Shopwise Developments Ltd and using them to pay €16,500 to the Casino Di Venezia in Vittoriosa in one night.
