The Municipality of Paralimni - Deryneia expresses, once again, its strong dissatisfaction with the existence and operation of immigrant structures within the tourist area.
Specifically, the Municipality became aware of the case of a third-country national with a serious history of criminal behavior, who was transferred from other areas of Cyprus, where he had been deemed undesirable, to an immigrant facility within the tourist area. From the first moment the Municipality was informed of the incident, it proceeded to immediate cooperation with the Deputy Ministry of Immigration and International Protection and the Police, resulting in his transfer, in order to avoid any potential incident.
The Municipality expresses its thanks to the Deputy Ministry of Immigration and International Protection as well as to the Famagusta Police Department, for their immediate response and the cooperation they showed in managing the issue.
At the same time, the Municipality of Paralimni - Deryneia clearly reiterates its position that the operation of migrant structures within tourist areas throughout Cyprus is wrong and harmful. It requests the competent services to terminate the conclusion of contracts for the operation of such structures in tourist areas, as well as the immediate and responsible management of cases of individuals from third countries who exhibit delinquent behavior or have a serious criminal record.
