The victim of an alleged abduction in Paphos was found by police in Chlorakas close to the pizza place where he was beaten up and shoved into a vehicle by four other men.
According to Paphos police spokesperson Michalis Nicolaou, the victim is a 23-year-old man of Asian origin. He sustained external injuries, for which he is currently being treated.
Nicolaou said that at 5:45pm on Wednesday, police received an anonymous tip that a man was beaten and shoved into a vehicle by four men outside of the pizza place in Chlorakas.
Police said that they were informed about the license plate numbers of the car, and that they began to search for it.
At the scene, police cordoned it off and took some evidence, which included a shoe and a mobile phone, which are believed to belong to the victim or the assailants.
Police said that during their investigations they found that the car is registered to a man not in Paphos, who he told police he sold to a Greek Cypriot through a website.
Later, police found the vehicle parked outside an apartment building in Tremithousa.
Nicolaou said that police are continuing the investigations.
