Previous Investigation into Alleged Assault by Phaedon Existed, Was 'Frozen' by Legal Service

Former Chief of Police, Kypros Michaelides, revealed that the Police had received previous reports regarding the alleged assault of the wife of the Mayor of Paphos, Phaedon Phaedonos, as early as 2018-2019. However, the investigation was 'frozen' by the Legal Service due to a lack of evidence. Mr. Michaelides described the current ex officio investigation as positive, while noting that the medical opinion published by Annie Alexoui constitutes testimony, but not conclusive evidence. Statements are expected to be taken from individuals related to the case.
