Paphos: Police crack down after robbery of two tourists
In Paphos, the police are showing a clear edge: After a brutal attack on two tourists on the night of June 30, 2025, several suspects were arrested within a few days. The two vacationers were arrested around 2:40 a.m. 

on foot when they were attacked by around ten people. A beach bag, cash and a bag with a mobile phone were captured.
The victims suffered bruises and cuts and were treated at the Paphos General Hospital. 

The investigation quickly led to the first arrests: a 21-year-old and a 17-year-old were arrested. During a house search, the police seized clothing that was apparently worn during the crime, as well as a canister of gas. 

In the following days, the search was expanded. On July 4, 2025, the police finally arrested a 19-year-old - the fifth
suspect. Four other people aged 14, 15, 17 and 21 had already been taken into custody

The police said they were determined to consistently prosecute any form of violence against tourists.
Especially in the high season, safety comes first. 

Our conclusion at MFRadio:
 💬 The police are sending a clear signal – anyone who attacks holidaymakers will feel the full force of the law.
 Paphos remains vigilant. 🚔☀️
