Imprisonment sentence 3,5 years was imposed today by the Limassol District Court on a 35-year-old, who was found guilty of the offences of trafficking in persons for the purpose of their sexual exploitation, prostitution and pimping.
The 35-year-old was arrested under a court warrant in July 2021, as part of the police investigation into the case in question.
A few days earlier, on 24 June 2021, members of the Limassol Anti-Trafficking Bureau (CTO) and the Limassol OPE, as part of a coordinated operation, conducted searches of apartments in Limassol. During the searches, two women were found in the apartments, who, after examinations by members of the JPC, were identified as victims of trafficking in persons and sexual exploitation.
Further investigation of the case provided testimony against the 35-year-old man, on the basis of which a warrant for his arrest was issued against him. A criminal file was opened against him and the case was registered for hearing at the Limassol District Court.
Having found the 35-year-old guilty, the Court today imposed a 3.5-year prison sentence.
