Police on Tuesday arrested an additional three people in connection with an alleged brawl between families in Limassol.

The trio, aged 47, 44, and 26 years old respectively, were remanded in custody for five days in court on Wednesday.

The incident happened on the evening of June 27 when a large crowd gathered, armed with crowbars, sticks and stones, and violence ensued, resulting in two people sustaining injuries.

An estimated 50 people were involved in the violence. Six cars were damaged, with a gas cylinder reportedly thrown from a fifth-floor window.

The police had already arrested five people for the case who were remanded custody on for eight days on Saturday.

A total of 13 people are still wanted in connection with the incident.

The two injured persons, aged 43 and 26, were taken to a private hospital where they were given first aid and kept for further treatment.

The fight, which was sparked by personal differences between two families, had reportedly come about as a result of an incident of harassment of a young woman by a youth from one of the families.

The police’s investigation into the matter is ongoing.
