A 51-year-old messenger who works in the Management and Personnel Office admitted in court today to trafficking cannabis, possession of cannabis and defiling three boys aged 13, 14, and 15.
He also admitted indecent assault and participating in lewd acts with the boys.
The hearing at one point was heard behind closed doors because some details could lead to the identification of the victims.
The accused, assisted by lawyer Daniela Mangion, did not request bail and was remanded in custody.
Sentence is to be delivered in July.
Informed sources said that in view of the admission, procedures have started for the employee to be dismissed by the MPO.
