Two Detained in Limassol in Connection with Series of Arson Attacks
Police have detained two men, aged 32 and 28, as part of an investigation into four arson attacks committed in Limassol over the past three months.
According to investigators, the suspects may be involved in three vehicle arsons (November 26 and December 8, 2025, and January 25, 2026) and the arson of a building on December 18, 2025.
Among the episodes is the arson of four luxury cars in the Muttayiaka area, with a total value exceeding 1.5 million euros.
