NICOSIA: Fifteen Cyprus police officers face criminal prosecution for botching a search for seven missing foreign women and children who were victims of a serial killer, officials said Tuesday.
A statement by the Cypriot state legal services on Tuesday said that attorney general Costas Clerides has “given instructions to launch criminal prosecutions against 15 members of the Cyprus Police Force”. The probe said the police did not just bungle the investigation but showed negligence in not taking the missing reports of foreign women and children seriously.
The case, involving the worst peace-time atrocities against women in Cyprus in memory, horrified an island where serious crime is relatively rare and forced the resignation of the justice minister and the police chief.
