Action must be taken over graffiti

HAVING WRITTEN to you in the past about the desecration of Limassol by the morons who perpetuate the graffiti, I am writing again in support of PK from Northallerton (Sunday Mail, July 13).

I live here and hate the mess. Would I recommend Limassol as a tourist destination? No way!

Nothing is being done to put a stop to this mindless degradation. How long will it be before the new marina is in the same disgusting state as the rest of our town?

There is a fine of up to 854 euros for littering on the highways; make this the minimum fine for graffiti on road signs which is both dangerous as well as unsightly.

Much of the graffiti is done by football supporters so fine the clubs. Put those responsible on community service to clean off the mess or paint it over.

Give the public a hotline to the police so that the perpetrators can be caught in the act.
Action needs to be taken now!

BR, Limassol

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. 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.
