curious to know exactly who reported Nikki Dimech to the police?

I haven’t seen (on tv) any reporters interviewing/questioning Buhagiar… that’s a tad odd methinks…. not much about this chap on in the papers either.

How much did these silly cases cost the State coffers?

In reply to il-Ginger. It might not be long before we might see something like this at St. Georges' Square Valletta. I have already seen undressed (I mean in the nude) children playing around the numerous water fountains some week ago. Hope to be there to see the show if a more adventurous adult turns up.

In reply to Stephen Forster. An ex-squaddie, I presume?

Literally speaking, m’ghandhomx x’jaghmlu. Malta has too many police officers per capita (even if they believe they’re understaffed). To boot, many people have been conditioned to scurry to the police on trivial issues like infants in a kindergarten. The nanny police state loves taking action.

Applying a different perspective of policing, you could do away with as many as half the chiefs and 25% of the Indians and still gain on both efficiency and effectiveness.

We were young once too, and most probably did what these tourists have done. They were not bothering anyone, And they were not flogging Yul Brynner, either…just as some local perverts do on beaches. Now that is obscene, yes it is. But for the sweet love of Jesus, what’s wrong in swimming naked, unless one has a perverted and twisted mind. Then I suggest that whoever reported these poor sods should go and see a shrink, THEIR morbid minds are warped.

I don’t think I can blame the police force, judge or magistrate to go along with our antiquated court of law. However I do blame our politicians who can easily, through their democratic powers, update these silly laws.

It seems the pettier the crime the harsher the verdict, while pimps,muggers and molesters get a lighter sentence.

I have always wondered whether it is xeno-phobia or xeno-jealousy.

It happens in Ghajn Tuffieha every blessed day too. Some enterprising scoundrel even built an illegal bunker-boathouse right on the water’s edge facing Gnejna. He makes a killing hiring out paddleboats to freikörperholidaymakers.

Then there’s the other chappie, in his seventies, doing the rounds of the nudist beach opposite Riviera selling drinks and collecting empty bottles to take to the choggie shop.

With some basic research (a Google search), the patriotic investigator/prosecutor/moralist would have discovered that skinny-dipping sometimes happens also in Rome’s Fontana di Trevi, and in broad daylight.
