A man who had served his sentence for arson after setting fire to a front door will have to serve another 18 months in prison after a court increased his punishment, following an appeal by the Attorney General.
Madame Justice Edwina Grima, presiding the Court of Criminal Appeal, upheld an appeal by the AG against Martin Marco Baldacchino who had been jailed over an arson attack in 2011.
