A 50-year-old man from Zebbug was this morning given a two-year jail term suspended for four years after he admitted stealing a 250-year-old chest of drawers worth €14,000 from a house in Żejtun on September 3 last year.
Mario Vella said he was with another man when the item was stolen.
Earlier this month, Derrin Fenech, 40, also of Zebbug, was charged with the theft. He denied the charges.
