Aug 2 2021

A 38-year-old unemployed father took four of his children on a shoplifting spree on Sunday, ending up on probation after admitting to his crime. The man from Qormi is an alleged father of 7 children, taking four of his children, aged 5, 8, 9 and 11, to rob a San Gwann household and toy store around 10 am last Sunday. CCTV confirmed police suspicions, with prosecuting inspector Matthew Grech explaining the case.

Police were deployed to stop the suspect, with the children being entrusted in the mother’s care. The father revealed how the pandemic rendered him jobless, ‘forcing’ him to steal electronic equipment and toys. He was also charged with failing to properly care for his four minor children as he registered a guilty plea. He was placed under a 3-year probation order, with the court being informed that social workers will be following up on the children’s well-being.
