Murdered by his wife and his best friend

A 30-YEAR-OLD estranged wife and her 38-year-old boyfriend have admitted murdering Yiannakis Christodoulou aka Foxy, on New Year’s Day in Limassol, police said.
Christodoulou, 34, from Trachoni, was stabbed five times, four times in the front and once in the back as he scuffled with two people on January 1 in a residential area of Polemidia in Limassol.
He had been driving in the area when his car was cut off by another vehicle and he was forced to stop, after which the attack took place.
“After looking further at the evidence obtained, police interrogated the man and woman who then confessed their guilt,” said Limassol CID chief Yiannis Soteriades.
According to police the vehicle being driven by the alleged guilty parties was found the night of the murder and searched for clues. The pair were given an eight-day remand by Limassol District Court yesterday. Police had originally arrested two men, aged 32 and 23 in connection with the murder but they were later released.
