Police arrested a 25-year-old man on Sunday 23 of November to assist investigations into an ongoing case involving assault causing actual bodily harm, attempted abduction, threats, extortion and illegal possession of an offensive weapon.

According to a statement from the Police Communication Branch, a 46-year-old Larnaca resident reported to police that, at around 17:00, he was attacked by three men while standing outside his home.
