Drug trafficking suspect Elmushraty, better known as Lilu King, was arraigned on Monday in connection with an altercation he had with the police on Friday night at the Fight Island venue. Police Inspectors Francesca Calleja and Joseph Mallia charged the man with breaching two sets of bail conditions, threatening police officers, disobeying their orders and breaching the peace. Inspector Mallia explained that Elmushraty had court authorisation to be outdoors outside of his curfew hours specifically for June 1, the date when the incident had occurred. The prosecution did not insist on Elmushraty’s re-arrest and agreed with the defence’s submissions that only a portion of his bail money be forfeited. The court refused to allow 12 months for Elmushraty to deposit his bail money, granting him 6 months to do so, instead.
