Not just a theft
It is with some dismay that I read an article in Times of Malta. It seems that assault has been relegated to a minor offence. In the eyes of one lawyer for sure. He said: “it was just the theft of a mobile”.
Does the lawyer know how such events affect the elderly?
The elderly gentleman involved in the case was going about his lawful business, set upon by two total strangers, who obviously manhandled him, invaded his personal space and stole what to him may have been a lifeline and, then, when they are in court, their lawyer defends their action with such a statement.
