A 76-year-old man who travelled to Cyprus for a holiday in April admitted on Tuesday to having sexually abused a six-year-old girl while on the island.
The man is reportedly the father of the child’s mother’s partner, and, according to newspaper Phileleftheros, admitted to a total of 10 charges in court on Tuesday.
As such, he was taken to the central prison, where he remains pending a sentencing hearing.
The newspaper wrote that the man had been abusing the girl since 2023, frequently travelling to Cyprus for holidays and staying at the house in which the girl lived.
The matter reportedly came to light after the victim explained a sequence of events to her mother and her mother’s partner, with the case then being reported to the police.
The man was then arrested in Greece, before being transferred to Cyprus to face justice.
