Four arrested in Paphos over turtle-throwing video

The police on Tuesday announced that they have made four arrests after a video emerged of four men appearing to kick and throw a turtle.

They said they had received a complaint at around 1.30pm on Monday and that they attended the scene of the video, a beach near the Paphos district village of Chlorakas, shortly afterwards.

There, they said, investigations led them to determine the identities of the four men shown in the video. All four are employees of the Chlorakas village council.
