A man was arrested in Limassol for communication with a minor and drug storage

A man was arrested in Limassol for communication with a minor and drug storage

In Limassol, the police detained a 40-year-old man who is suspected of sexual violence against a minor and several other crimes. 

The reason for the arrest was the usual check of traffic, when the officers stopped the car without insurance and documents, which was in the status of “deregistered”.

In the car in the passenger seat was a 14-year-old girl who looked frightened. When the police asked for the documents, the man tried to give her to his daughter, grabbing her hand. However, during repeated interrogation, the schoolgirl told the truth and was taken to the Limassol police station.

During a car search, the police found about two grams of methamphetamine, as well as a set of tools that can be used for theft. It turned out that the detainee was already known to law enforcement agencies in cases of thefts and drugs.

During the interrogation, the minor said that she was in a “relationship” with a man for about a year. Moreover, in recent months they have consumed crystalline methamphetamine together. Analyzes in the hospital confirmed the presence of a drug in her body.

The Limassol District Court decided to detain the suspect for 8 days. Now his business is investigated by the criminal service of Limassol and a division of sexual violence against minors.

A man is charged with sexual violence against a child, drug storage, the provision of false information of the police, violation of traffic rules and storage of tools for theft.
