A case of theft from a person with special disability (recent stroke) is being investigated by Famagusta CID, an incident committed yesterday afternoon in Ayia Napa.
As reported to the Famagusta CID by the victim and his wife, the victim aged, 56 years old from Paralimni, at the time in question was on the promenade of Ayia Napa near the beach area "Ammos tou Kambouris" for his regular walk.
At some point on the boardwalk, he was approached by an unknown man who appeared to be lurking in a bushy area and, speaking to him in Cypriot dialect, asked him for money.
The 56-year-old volunteered to help him[/B] and in his attempt to give him money the offender realised that the victim had two gold chains and a gold cross around his neck[/B] and as a result he pulled them off and then fled with the stolen property.
According to the victim, the offender, who spoke the Cypriot dialect, was described as a man aged about 35 years old, of medium build with short black hair, a beard and wearing dark-coloured clothes.
As the victim reported to the police, the offender on his departure boarded a small vehicle which was parked in the area, silver in colour possibly a SUZUKI or TOYOTA and the front windshield had adhesive tapes stuck to the edges.
From the first moment of the complaint, the Famagusta CID went to the scene where they carried out examinations and search possibly closed circuit surveillance.
The police are appealing to the public to be particularly vigilant while relying on the public's emotional awareness to provide information should they perceive or become aware of anything that may help solve the case. In such a case, the public may contact the local police station and the Famagusta CID.
