22-year-old Kenneth Portelli admitted committing the theft from Phoneworld, being an accomplice in a theft from Phone Connections in Ta Xbiex and the theft of an Opel Kaddett. He also pleaded guilty to a charge of handling stolen goods.
The court, presided over by magistrate Antonio Mizzi, granted the accused bail against a Lm1,000 personal guarantee. A magistrates’ court is due to pass judgement on the case next Wednesday.
