Larnaca apartment committee demands probe into illegal utilities and unauthorized occupancy
The management committee of a Larnaca apartment complex has urged authorities to investigate serious allegations including illegal electricity and water connections, unauthorized apartment use, overcrowding, and threats against committee members. They claim some apartments are occupied using forged or illegal rental agreements without owners’ consent, with suspicions of money laundering via unauthorized rent collection. Inspections by the Electricity Authority of Cyprus revealed dangerous illegal electric connections, while unauthorized water connections and theft were also reported. After authorities disconnected some illegal connections, they allege these were reconnected, accompanied by intimidation of residents. The committee has filed police complaints and is collaborating with the Larnaca self-government organisation to assess building structural safety and plan repairs. Highlighting concerns over safety, hygiene, and property protection, the committee called for immediate, thorough investigations and enforcement actions against illegal activities, emphasizing that their protest targets only legal and safety issues, not any racial or religious group.
