A man has been jailed for two years after he admitted to ac- quiring and circulating child pornography. The unemployed 34-year- old, who suffers from an in- tellectual impairment, was arraigned by inspector Rox- anne Tabone and charged under articles of the law deal- ing with the possession and spreading of child pornogra- phy. The Maltese man, who lives in Paola, immediately plead- ed guilty to the charges. His legal aid lawyer, Grazi- ella Tanti, said the man need- ed psychiatric help – and the court agreed. Magistrate Audrey Demicoli sentenced the man to two years' impris- onment, placing him under a concurrent treatment order for two years. She also or- dered the destruction of the pornographic material. Psychiatric treatment for man jailed for child porn DAVID HUDSON OPPOSITION leader Adrian Delia has warned that Maltese students will be condemned to cheap labour, take the government to task for its paucity in its investment in education. "This is a government that doesn't in- vest in the future of the nation's children and doesn't believe in education," Delia said, with an unfinished St Paul's Bay pri- mary school in the background. Delia said Maltese students will be competing with the same foreign cheap labour the government has invested in, expressing his disbelief that the primary school promised by the government five years ago is yet to be completed. "The PN administrations in the past built a school per year, and now we have a container per week," Delia said, refer- ring to mobile classrooms used in the ex- isting St Paul's Bay primary school that has grown too small for the locality's growing population. "The government doesn't treat teachers with dignity and they are seen as a cost rather than an investment. This is preoc- cupying and the PN is committed to give education the importance it deserves," Delia said, adding that the pre-budget document published by the party in the last week was testament to this. PN secretary-general Clyde Puli said the government deficiencies when it comes to education were obvious to all: unions, teachers, parents and students. Puli referred to snapshots of the dilapi- dated condition of St Teresa school in St Venera after these made the rounds on social media. "There needs to be a long-term solution to these crises. The mobile classrooms, for example, were supposed to be a tem- porary solution but it's a lengthy tempo- rariness. And as the population keeps in- creasing how is the government going to enlarge the squad of teachers available?" Puli said. He announced that the PN was speak- ing to multiple stakeholders and unions whose ideas and opinions were relevant and necessary, he said.
