Why did police not arrest those who sprayed graffiti

The demonstrator who pushed the National guard soldier goes to the police station on his own volition and is arrested and remanded In custody for two days, while thugs from Apoel / Elam with their faces covered spray graffiti and cause damage in down town Nicosia are ignored by the police.

Go figure !!! It would appear that as the law stands the police have ‘carte blanche ‘ to arrest people and remand them in custody without any regard for a persons right to liberty or innocence until proven guilty . A ‘fast and loose ‘ dispensation of the law.

The moral of the tale is do not get arrested in Cyprus , there seems to be a lot of ‘fish of one and flesh of another ‘ in the administration of justice.

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.
