These are the main stories features in Saturday's newspapers.

Times of Malta quotes lawyers saying the judiciary tried to “justify the unjustifiable” when they tried to defend a decision by four judges to allow two students found guilty of theft to practise law. It also reports that medical authorities are investigating coeliac testing kits at the State hospital after a number of
patients received “shocking” test results.

The Malta Independent reports that the man accused of abducting his wife and holding her in a cave has been granted bail.

L-orizzont says lawyers and judges had clashed over the interpretation of the case of the two young lawyers. It also pays tribute to Charles Miceli, the activist against poverty, who died on Friday, aged 68. 

In-Nazzjon reports that the two deputy governors of the Central Bank had each been given a raise of €10,000. The newspaper also marks the five years since Labour was elected to govern in Malta by describing it as a term riddled by the destruction of values and what is right.
