Police scuffled with a group of protesters outside the Limassol station, it emerged on Sunday, after ten individuals were arrested and one officer ended up in hospital.

The ten individuals are claiming that they have been illegally arrested and procedures to remand them are also illegal, it emerged from their defence team.

According to the police, an order to disperse their protest was issued, which is why they were arrested.

However, the defence claims that no such order was issued.

The protest got rough on Saturday evening, after a demonstrator condemned police actions a few weeks ago, which led to the death of Anis Rahman during a migration unit raid on a condemned building in Limassol.

The protester shouted that they wanted answers over the “murder of Rahman”, which instigated the police to cross the road and ask intently, “Who are the murders? What murder?”

A few weeks ago, during the raid, Rahman jumped from a balcony of the building he was in, which resulted in his death.

In the video police are seen to be roughing up protesters and pushing them.

Earlier in an announcement, police said one of their officers was injured in the scuffles.

The officer had injuries to his pelvis and knee and was treated at Limassol General before being released.

According to police, during the demonstration outside the Limassol police station, six men and four women appeared to have injured the officer.

Later in the day, the court decided that a decision would be made on Monday about the remand of the 10 individuals.
