Five people remanded following brawl at Limassol nightclub

At approximately 1 a.m. on May 10, 2026, a brawl involving up to 20 people occurred at a nightclub in the Ypsonas area of Limassol. The incident began as a dispute between four customers and escalated outside the venue, where additional participants arrived armed with knives and wooden clubs. Five individuals were injured and hospitalized; four were discharged after treatment, while a 29-year-old remains under medical observation. The Limassol District Court ordered the six-day detention of the five suspects, who are aged 25, 29, and 31. Police are currently seeking another 15 individuals involved in the incident and are processing 31 witness statements. While some reports linked this event to an assault on a 20-year-old foreign national on Franklin Roosevelt Street, authorities are treating these as separate investigative matters.
