A number of people suspected of stealing from Mellieha have been identified and may be arraigned in the coming days.
In a brief statement, the police noted that a 40-year-old man (Jason Scerri from Balzan) was jailed yesterday after admitting he was involved in the same theft.
Mr Scerri admitted burgling a villa in Sta Marija Estate.
The police said it was not prudent to divulge more information at this stage so as not to hinder investigations.
