A Sicilian who resides in Bugibba was this afternoon jailed for 14 months after pleading guilty to theft.
Gianluca Torres, 26, is also a relapser.
He admitted to stealing between €232 and €2,393 from a room at the Burlington Hotel in Dragonara Road, St Julian’s to the detriment of Incoronata Montemarano and others.
The Court recommended the accused should follow a drug rehabilitation programme while in prison and asked for the director to be informed of this.
Magistrate Jacqueline Padovani noted that Mr Torres missed the five opportunities he had been given to reform himself.
