Father Fined for Negligence in Child's Death
October 16, 2026
The Paphos District Court sentenced a 37-year-old father to a fine of €3,000 for negligence that led to the death of his three-year-old son. The father, a British national, argued that it was a moment of inattention. The court acknowledged the father's tragic situation and his full cooperation with authorities. The tragedy occurred last summer when the child fell from the fourth floor of a hotel. The father is now free to return to his family.
