Two Accounts for 14-Month-Old Baby's Fracture – Under Police Scrutiny

The Limassol Police are investigating a serious case of a 14-month-old baby being injured within a nursery. The baby's mother reported that upon picking up her child, she noticed significant discomfort and pain in the leg, resulting in an immediate transfer to a medical center where a femur fracture was diagnosed. The baby underwent surgery and remains hospitalized. The authorities are examining two accounts: the mother's allegation of possible abuse or negligence, and the view of the nursery staff, who claim the baby left without any apparent problems. The mother works at the same nursery, but in a different department from where the baby was being cared for. The investigation focuses on collecting testimonies and evidence to clarify the circumstances of the injury. The baby's health condition is stable, but full recovery is expected to take time due to the child's age. The case has caused significant concern, and the Police continue their investigations to determine whether negligence or abuse led to the baby's injury.
