Paphos Municipality Reseals Building Following Drug Use Allegations

The Paphos Municipality has resealed the SKE building in Moutallos following reports of drug use on the premises. A social media user captured images indicating drug use inside the building, with a young man allegedly admitting to using the space for this purpose. The building had been previously sealed but was repeatedly illegally accessed, with police making arrests in prior instances. The Mayor of Paphos, Angelos Onisiforou, stated that additional measures are being taken to prevent similar incidents and that the possibility of converting the building into a space for social benefit, such as housing an association, is being considered. The Municipal Authority is cooperating with the Police to address the issue.
