Police have detained a 24-year-old domestic worker in connection with a sexual abuse case involving a minor, authorities said Monday.

The alleged victim’s mother reported the case to police, prompting an investigation by the Limassol Police in coordination with the Minor Sexual Abuse Offenses Investigation Branch at Police Headquarters. Investigators said they found evidence implicating the domestic worker.

The suspect was handcuffed and taken into custody before being brought to the Limassol District Court Monday. In a closed-door hearing, the court approved an eight-day detention requested by police while the investigation continues.

Authorities have not released further details due to the ongoing investigation and the minor’s age.

The case has shocked the local community and underscores the continuing vigilance of police in handling sensitive cases involving children.
