Suspended Sentence for Teacher Due to Indecent Assault

March 2, 2026

A teacher from Limassol was sentenced to suspended imprisonment for indecent assaults on a minor. The 63-year-old defendant committed the acts twice against a 9-year-old girl while working at a private tutoring center. His wife, the owner of the center, allowed him to have contact with children without the required certification. The decision came eight years after the offenses occurred. The court acknowledged the power imbalance due to the age difference between the victim and the perpetrator.
