Investigation Developments Concerning Paphos Mayor
February 4, 2026
The police are conducting an investigation into a rape allegation against Paphos Mayor, Phaedon Phedonos, based on Article 144 of the Penal Code. This investigation arose after a complaint from the alleged victim, who provided a written statement lasting over 5 hours. Additionally, another case of alleged violence against the mayor's wife is under scrutiny, but without an official complaint. Both mayors will be placed on suspension until the investigations are complete. The case dates back about 10 years, making the investigation more challenging.
