Oct 12 2024 Share

In a heartwarming display of generosity, local charity Puttinu Cares have revealed that young siblings Giulia and Nicholas Xerri made their birthdays truly special this year by choosing to give back to those in need.

Instead of asking for the usual presents, six-year-old Giulia and her four-year-old brother Nicholas asked family and friends to contribute money towards a cause close to their hearts—Puttinu Cares, the Maltese charity that supports families facing cancer.

Their inspiring act of kindness, coupled with the generosity of their loved ones, resulted in a remarkable €700 donation to Puttinu. This noble gesture by the young siblings not only demonstrates their selflessness but also sets a powerful example of compassion and giving at such a young age.

Well done to Giulia and Nicholas for their kind-hearted initiative, showing that no one is too young to make a positive difference in the world.

Tourist Jailed After Leaving Cocaine and Ecstasy Behind in Hotel Room

Oct 12 2024 Share

A tourist who left 41 sachets of cocaine and ecstasy pills in his hotel room after checking out has been jailed following his admission that the drugs were his.

The drugs were discovered by a cleaner at the St Paul’s Bay hotel, who found them inside an oven in the room after three guests had checked out. The substances included 41 sachets of cocaine, a brownish substance, and four ecstasy pills.

Later that day, around 8:30 pm, one of the former guests, 24-year-old British national Kane Dylan Bennington, contacted the hotel to report that he had forgotten his passport. Police were alerted, and Bennington, who is self-employed, was promptly arrested upon his return to the hotel.

He was subsequently arraigned and charged with possessing cocaine and ecstasy in circumstances suggesting the drugs were not solely for personal use. After consulting his legal aid lawyer, he pled guilty to the charges.

During the hearing, magistrate Noel Bartolo cautioned the defendant about the legal consequences of his guilty plea, including the possibility of imprisonment, and provided an opportunity to reconsider. However, Bennington confirmed his admission by raising his right hand and repeating, “I’m guilty.”

After hearing submissions, the court found Bennington guilty and sentenced him to an effective 18-month jail term, a sentence agreed upon by both the defense and prosecution. Additionally, the court issued a treatment order for the same duration, following the defense lawyer’s statement that Bennington was struggling with drug addiction.

Inspectors Francesco Mizzi and John Leigh Howard led the prosecution, while lawyer Ilona Schembri served as the legal aid attorney.
