Pimping arrest

A PUB owner from Paphos was arrested yesterday on suspicion of pimping, owning a brothel, profiting from prostitution, sexually abusing women and covering up profits from illegal activities.

Specifically, a man testified that he had gone to the pub in question and paid the suspect £60 with the intent of having sex with a woman who worked at the establishment.

The money and other objects were taken as evidence, while the Paphos CID investigates further.

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.
