Pace said that she’ll miss his constant smile, laughs together, jokes, endless love and amazing memories together – all of which she’ll cherish forever.
“Thank you for all your advice and life lessons, for always taking care of Ella and I, and for being our second dad. You are truly one of a kind and I am so grateful for all my moments with you.”
“Though he may be gone, his loving spirit lives on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him and love him. Rest in peace Nannu”, concluded Maxine.

In court on Thursday, 21-year-old bouncer Riald Gragjevi pleaded not guilty to causing serious injuries to Idriss Ahmed Adem outside a Paceville nightclub on New Year’s Eve, asserting that he was the victim of a broken bottle stabbing.
Times of Malta reported that Gragjevi, captured on camera during the assault, was arrested at the airport trying to leave the country. Inspector Brian Xuereb, on night duty between December 31 and January 1, responded to a report of an unconscious person in Paceville’s St George’s Road.
The victim, suffering grievous bodily harm, was taken to Mater Dei Hospital. Earlier, a security guard reported an assault with a broken bottle, later identified as the victim.
Gragjevi’s arrest, triggered by an attempt to board a flight, was confirmed by airport police.
Defense lawyer Shazoo Ghaznavi informed Magistrate Joe Mifsud that Gragjevi pleads not guilty, asserting victimhood after being stabbed by a broken bottle, with two additional bottles thrown at him.
Ghaznavi emphasised that Gragjevi wasn’t fleeing, as the ticket was purchased three weeks earlier. The victim released a video showcasing prior issues with club bouncers, adding complexity to the case.

According to weather forecasts, this upcoming weekend is expected to bring with it further winter weather, with strong winds and isolated rain showers.
Temperatures too are set to drop to as low as 12 degrees Celsius by Sunday, deceasing even further into next week at 10 degrees Celsius by Tuesday.
According to Facebook weather page ‘It-Temp Madwarna’, winter weather is expected to hit the Maltese islands as of Saturday 6th January 2024.
So as we all return to work following the holidays, we’ll be very much inclined to rush back home after a long day to snuggle up in a warm environment.
