Local
A 33-year-old man has been sentenced to eight months of prison time after injuring his partner following a heated argument over a necklace.
Sylvester Tabone and Anthea Grech are reported to have had an argument on the 6th of January 2019, where both parties claimed that they argued over a missing necklace, which Tabone alleged that Grech stole in retaliation for a previous argument.
Magistrate Joseph Mifsud remarked that he wanted to solidify the Court’s position on the situation, where it does not tolerate this kind of behaviour.
