A BRITISH tourist received a six-month prison sentence- suspended for two years- after admitting an assault on a Guardia Civil officer outside a Magaluf nightclub.

A Palma court on Wednesday also fined the young woman €240, after she travelled from the UK to attend the hearing.

The Ultima Hora newspaper reported that a plea bargain deal between her lawyer and prosecutors meant she will not serve any jail time.
