A man was yesterday jailed for two years after admitting to having threatened two police officers.
Abdifatah Abdi, 20, a Somali who had been living in Paola, pleaded guilty to threatening two female police officers and attempting to damage a police car on Friday evening.
The incident took place when two officers from the vice squad went to Marsa and found Mr Abdi arguing with a prostitute.
He then began arguing with the two officers.
He also pleaded guilty to disobeying police orders, breaching the peace and committing the crime during the operative period of a suspended sentence.
Magistrate Ian Farrugia jailed him for two years and fined him €4,000.
