Two men suspected of killing two others in Limassol and setting the victims car on fire will appear in court on Saturday for a further remand.
According to police, the two suspects, 19 and 23, are believed to be involved in the murder of Andreas Kouzoupis, 39, and Slovakian Dabid Chmelar, 38, who were found shot in the head and dumped in a car that was set ablaze on July 31.
Police are expected to request the further remand of the two suspects, who were already in custody for eight days.
Authorities said that the two suspects have given conflicting versions about the events, and in relation to the evidence found at the scene.
Kouzoupis’ body was identified first, about a day after the crime, while Chmelar’s body was identified on Friday.
Limassol CID is leading the investigation, with authorities currently gathering and analysing CCTV footage from the area to piece together the victims’ final movements.
Last week, Justice Minister Marios Hartsiotis and police chief Stelios Papatheodorou were briefed on the developments at Limassol’s central police station.
