Phaidon Phaidonos Case: Legal Service Requests Additional Investigations – New Instructions to Police

The Legal Service has returned the file of the case concerning the suspended Mayor of Paphos, Phaidon Phaidonos, to the Police, requesting additional investigations regarding the rape allegation dating back over a decade. The file had been submitted to the Legal Service on February 26th, but further investigations were deemed necessary for the completeness of the evidence. Approximately 25 testimonies have already been taken, including that of the complainant and businessman Theodoros Aristodimou, who had previously reported the case. Among those who testified is a woman who held a state office. Mr. Phaidonos, through his lawyer, denies the allegations and speaks of political targeting.
