Limassol: Lawyer Faces Fraud Charges, Co-defendant Turns Witness

A criminal fraud case in Limassol takes a significant turn, with a well-known lawyer as the defendant. The charges include fraud, property transfer, and company share fraud.

Her former co-defendant, an employee who had certified the documents, was acquitted and is expected to testify as a prosecution witness. This development followed a request from his lawyer to the Attorney General, claiming his client was also a victim.

The case is being heard at the Limassol Permanent Criminal Court. The lawyer faces charges of forgery, money laundering (possession of €450,000), and fraud related to five apartments (worth over €500,000) and embezzlement of €400,000 through share transfers.

The proceedings were adjourned until mid-September.
