In Italian there is a saying "con le Corne" - with the horns, which is slang for being cheated upon.
Horns in maltese are "Qrun"

San Pubulju il-Muqran (Saint Publius the Horned)
Aw ja muqran - ("hey you muqran")
Note: This entertaining insult is mainly directed towards people living in Furjana since their patron saint is Saint Publius. People from Valletta are especially prone to using this insult, especially after Valletta FC win against Floriana FC (since they happen to be arch-enemies).
