The police are investigating a case involving robbery, kidnapping, theft, assault, and causing actual bodily harm, as well as other serious offenses, with a 65-year-old man as the victim, in the Larnaca district.
The case was reported to the police by the 65-year-old himself. According to his statement, last Monday he met in the Larnaca district with three individuals, two of whom he knew—aged 32 and 42.
During their meeting, the 42-year-old attacked and beat the complainant and then stole €300, his cell phone, and his car keys.
Afterward, the three men allegedly forced him into a car driven by the third unknown individual and took him to a property owned by the complainant, in a village in the Larnaca district. There, according to the 65-year-old, the alleged perpetrators took his car keys and, after placing various items found at the property inside the vehicle, left the scene in an unknown direction.
As part of the investigation into the case, arrest warrants were issued against the 32-year-old and the 42-year-old. Following a coordinated operation by members of the Nicosia Criminal Investigation Department, they were located in the Nicosia district and arrested; a third individual was also found with them, who, as was subsequently determined, is the third person mentioned in the complainant’s report.
The arrested individuals are expected to appear today before the Larnaca District Court for the purpose of issuing a detention order against them.
The Kofinou Police Station is investigating the case.
