More shots in Paphos

RECKLESS shooters have targeted a supermarket in Paphos in a second night which saw shots fired in the area.

On Monday night, unknown occupants of a saloon car took pot shots with a hunting rifle at a Papantoniou supermarket in the village of Chloraka, causing £300 worth of damage.

This follows an incident in Tremithousa the night before, where the windows of two shops and a Co-operative bank were hit.

A Paphos police spokesman said they may have located the car used in the attacks, with the shell of a burnt-out car matching its description found yesterday in the area.

No suspects have yet been identified.

The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
