10 arrested after scuffle with police released

All ten people who were arrested on Sunday after being involved in a scuffle with police during a protest in Limassol were released on Monday.

The ten, six men and four women, were all brought before the Limassol district court on Monday, with police requesting that they all be remanded in custody.

However, the court refused to acquiesce to the police’s request, saying such a move would “not be necessary”, despite there being a “reasonable suspicion” that they committed the offences of which they are accused.
