55-Year-Old Thanasios Kalogeropoulos Murder Case: Two Suspects Brought Before Limassol Court

Two suspects, aged 41 and 44, in the murder case of 55-year-old Thanasios Kalogeropoulos are once again facing the Limassol Court today. They were the first to be arrested in connection with the case. Investigators from the Limassol Criminal Investigation Department are expected to request an extension of their detention for another two days to align with the expiration of the detention order for the other two suspects, aged 22 and 21.

The case is set to be officially registered this Thursday, with the case file initially transferred to the Legal Service for instructions on individuals to be referred to trial before the Criminal Court.

The 41-year-old suspect has been scientifically identified as one of Kalogeropoulos’ killers and was also the motorcycle driver. Genetic material found on one of the hoods used by the assailants at the crime scene matched the DNA of the 41-year-old suspect. Furthermore, telecommunications data of the 41-year-old shows incriminating evidence, as it was discovered that he received a signal from an area near the residence of the 21-year-old suspect and alleged second perpetrator on the morning of October 30, before the murder. The same number also received signals from antennas located in the murder area and the location of the arson.

On the other hand, the 44-year-old suspect is accused of providing his mansion in Skarinou for the organization and planning of Kalogeropoulos’ murder. He is also reported to have provided the rental vehicle used in the crime. Closed-circuit cameras captured the vehicle traveling to and from the mansion, in the same area where the perpetrators’ vehicle was set on fire. The vehicle was also used to transport the 21-year-old suspect from his home in the early hours of the murder.

The investigation into the murder of Thanasios Kalogeropoulos continues, with the focus now on gathering further evidence against the two suspects brought before the court today.
