Combine the tomatoes, salt, pepper and sugar in a medium bowl. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes, until the tomatoes have released some of their juices.

Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan set on high heat until sizzling, about 2 minutes. Add the onion, garlic and allspice. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and their juices and cook for 2 minutes. Add the chickpeas and mint and cook for 1-2 minutes to heat them through. Serve with the yogurt drizzled over the top.
