Abdurahman Yousuf Adam, 28, of Somalia, today was imprisoned for two months after he admitted to fleeing from Malta to go to Italy and later Germany without having the relevant travel documents.
He was found by police in Germany and was sent back to Malta to face charges of failing to inform the Immigration Department that he was leaving the islands.
Magistrate Doreen Clarke presided over the case while Immigration Inspector Darren Buhagiar prosecuted.
Lawyer Noel Bartolo appeared on behalf of the accused.
