This car-turned-dancefloor stood out as a unique sight against the backdrop of the carnival’s usual mix of elaborate floats, decorations, and costumes.

The crowd, watching from the opposite side of the street, was treated to an unconventional performance that highlighted the carnival’s reputation for embracing the unexpected.

This act of spontaneous creativity embodies the spirit of the Nadur Spontaneous Carnival, known for its lively atmosphere and the freedom it offers participants to express themselves in the most unconventional ways.

The image of carnival-goers dancing on an overturned car will undoubtedly remain one of the most memorable moments from this year’s event, showcasing the lengths to which attendees go to celebrate in their own distinctive styles.

Six Youth In Court After Assaulting & Robbing 16 Year Old With Knife

Feb 13 2024

Six individuals, comprising five girls and a boy aged between 14 and 20, allegedly assaulted and robbed a 16-year-old boy with a penknife in a Floriana public garden last weekend.

The victim sustained severe injuries, including cut ligaments in his hands. Police, aided by CCTV footage and intensive investigation, identified and arrested the suspects.

The altercation reportedly stemmed from a verbal dispute between the victim, an ex-boyfriend of one of the assailants’ friends, and the alleged attackers.

All six defendants faced charges of grievous bodily harm and breaching public peace, with additional charges for theft and possession of a weapon.

While the court questioned the charges against the 14-year-olds, citing the requirement of malicious intent, the prosecution argued that evidence demonstrated such intent, as the victim was robbed of cash and attacked with a penknife.

Despite objections from the prosecution, the court granted bail for the defendants, emphasising their right to continue their studies and imposing strict conditions, including a curfew and a ban on contacting the victim.
