As Mr. Kyriakou noted, the 60-year-old owner of the company is currently outside Cyprus, and authorities are awaiting his statement upon his return.

Meanwhile, as reported earlier by Alpha’s Limassol correspondent Erica Kavazi on the “Alpha Kalimera” program, two individuals reportedly approached the scene on a motorcycle and opened fire, managing to shatter the building’s glass entrance and display case before fleeing.
