Man Acquitted in Larnaca Crime Group Case: Trial of Others Postponed

A 32-year-old man who was allegedly a member of a criminal group in Larnaca has been acquitted of charges due to lack of evidence. The trial of the other four members of the group has been postponed to April 7th, as lawyers requested time to review the charges. The defendants are accused of providing 'protection' to businesses in Larnaca. The case came to light after the seizure of videos from mobile phones, depicting drug trafficking and money movement. Investigations revealed that the declared financial details of the accused do not match their assets.
