In relation to Mr. Ilias Gioni's file, which was sent in January 2022 to the Cyprus Police and which, according to him, relates to information involving Cyprus and/or Cypriots in schemes that exploit young women and lure them into prostitution, the Legal Service of the Republic informs the following. From the study of the material it was found that it is characterised by generalities, without specific information from reliable sources or persons. [*]The investigation file of the case was subsequently sent to the Office of the Attorney General of the Republic, who, after studying and evaluating the material, gave instructions to the investigators to continue the investigative work on specific issues. [*]After further investigations by the Police, the file was again forwarded to the Office of the Attorney General, where, after studying and evaluating the additional testimonial material, it was established that there is no evidence that would constitute an offence or even justify further investigation by the Police. [*]Consequently, always on the basis of the existing data, the file was returned to the Police.
