evildoer/criminal
servatis a periculo = to/for those saved from danger
servatis a malifico = to/for those saved from (a/the) evildoer/criminal
The Latin phrases should be 'servatis a periculo' and 'servatis a malifico'. The preposition 'a(b)' requires the ablative. It's never used with the accusative case.
