A 37-year-old employee of a private company engaged in traffic control was attacked while on a main road of a village in the Limassol district.
According to the head of the ICF of Limassol, Lefteris Kyriakou, at around 02:20 in the morning the 37-year-old was attacked by six persons who had their faces covered with hoods and were holding offensive instruments. After breaking the driver's window of the vehicle and causing other damage, they threw stones at the 37-year-old, resulting in a head injury.
He was taken to the First Aid Department where he was treated and then discharged. The case is being investigated by the Pachna police station.
As Mr. Kyriacou clarified, the 37-year-old was alone and conducting a traffic control, while asked if it is right for an employee to be left alone, he pointed out that these are issues of the company which in cooperation with the Police Headquarters are being settled.
At the same time, he noted that at this stage all possibilities are being investigated, while it seems that these are young persons who became aware of the presence of the car in the area and acted in this way.
