A tavern in Limassol was targeted by bombers in the early hours of Monday, sending shockwaves through the local community. The owners, a 36-year-old and a 27-year-old, have expressed their bewilderment over the incident. They have told authorities that they have no disputes with anyone and do not suspect anyone, emphasizing their cooperation with the ongoing police investigation.
Ongoing Investigation
The Limassol police are diligently working on the case, having collected various pieces of evidence from the crime scene. These will be sent for scientific examination to aid in identifying the perpetrators. Investigators are also scouring the area for surveillance footage, hoping to find visual material that may have captured the movements of those responsible for the bombing.
This is not the first time the tavern has been targeted. This recent attack marks the second incident in two years, raising questions about the underlying motives. However, according to philenews, Limassol CID investigators have some direction regarding the motives, which are reportedly not related to protection issues.
The explosion occurred at precisely 4:48 AM at the tavern’s entrance. On-site examinations by the bomb squad revealed that a low-power incendiary device had been placed at the entrance, causing minor damage. Despite the severity of the situation, the owners remain cooperative and hopeful for a resolution.
The owners claim to have no disputes with anyone and are cooperating with the police investigation. The community remains on edge as authorities continue their search for answers. The incident has undoubtedly cast a shadow over the otherwise peaceful locale, but there is a collective hope that justice will soon be served.
