A man accused of stealing two motorbikes in Birkirkara has been remanded in custody.
Wayne Falzon, 33 of Birkirkara was charged with stealing a Peugeot Kisbee motorbike in March and a Piaggio Typhoon in June 15.
Mr Falzon was also charged with handling stolen goods, breaching a probation order as well as being a recidivist.
Prosecuting Inspector Elton Taliana explained that the suspect had been identified through CCTV footage as well as through information supplied by eyewitnesses.
A request for bail by legal aid lawyer Joseph Brincat was turned down by the court, presided over by magistrate Neville Camilleri, on the grounds of a possible risk of tampering with evidence.
