A Somali national living in Zebbug, Gozo was today arraigned in court, accused of grievously injuring another person.

The 22-year-old man was also accused, in the Gozitan court, of disturbing the peace during the night time, of being intoxicated in public and unable to care for himself, and of relapsing.

The alleged crimes took place on 10 December, in an establishment located in Triq il-Port, Zebbug, Gozo.

The man pleaded not guilty to the charges, and was granted bail, with the court imposing a number of conditions on him.

Magistrate Joanne Vella Cuschieri presided.

Inspector Bernard Charles Spiteri prosecuted.
