LESA official suspected of deleting hundreds of politicians’ and businessmen’s fines

Hundreds of fines issued to local politicians, business people and LESA officials over the past five years have been deleted from the agency’s systems, Times of Malta have reported. From speeding to parking tickets, these individuals dodged fines due to a LESA official reportedly marking them all as “cancelled“, “withdrawn” or “not guilty“.

Sources close to Local Enforcement Systems Agency reported that a particular vehicle “was forgiven about 200 contraventions”. Local Enforcement Systems Agency (LESA) CEO Svetlick Flores highlighted that the employee who deleted the fines was not authorised to do so, revealing that the official in question was removed from his role until disciplinary proceedings are concluded.

It is currently unclear whether or not a police investigation has been opened or the individuals who had their fines deleted will be revealed.

More on the story as it happens.

People felt safer knowing that they live around courageous front-liners and a robust health system.

People figured out that little things like baking bread can go a long way to help us feel more accomplished and happier.

It’s not every day that artists get to collaborate with Gucci but when they do, you better believe that it’s going to be amazing.

More so when the artist in question is Billie Eilish, with the young artist releasing a limited-edition vinyl set for her most recent album ‘Happier Than Ever.’ In their efforts to embrace the world of music and self-expression, Alessandro Michele’s Gucci Brand sought to create an exclusive box set for Eilish’s album, inspired by the artist’s embrace on authenticity.

The vinyl is obviously Gucci designed and made to be a collector’s item, dancing on the fine line between Gucci’s design and Eilish’s artistry and to top it all off, it is made from recycled vinyl scraps from the colours of the first pressing of the record.

The set also includes luxury Nail Stickers with the brand’s iconic GG emblazoned on them and the set will be officially available in selected Gucci stores as from December 2.
