A 34-year-old man convicted of theft has been given a suspended sentence so he can rehabilitate himself.
Imitiaz Moses Mallam stole six oxygen cylinders worth $920 from the Oceania Gas Limited on July 23, 2018.
In his mitigation, Mallam said he was married with four children and was facing financial difficulties, which led him to commit the offence.
Magistrate Jioji Boseiwaqa ordered that if Mallam was convicted within the two years of the suspended sentence, this sentence may be activated.
Mallam was given 28 days to file an appeal to the High Court of Fiji.
