Crowd with carnivalgoers in Limassol - Police fined (VIDEO-IMAGES)

Thousands of carnivalgoers gathered in various parts of Limassol, despite the decrees, to have fun on the occasion of the carnivals.

While the average solution had been found due to the pandemic for the carnivalgoers to proceed to a motorcade, at the end of the "parade" citizens gathered in the parking lot of the Air.

In a coordinated operation of the Police at the spot, the carnivalists in the view of members of the Force headed to the area of ​​the old port.

Then a new gathering took place in the old port with thousands of carnivalgoers.

Police proceeded to report two establishments in the area for the sale of alcoholic beverages, while 28 citizens have been reported so far.

However, the Minister of Justice, Emily Giolitis, appealed through her intervention in the main news bulletin of SIGMA, for the images of crowds that are currently observed in the center of Limassol by carnivalgoers.

Specifically, Ms. Gioliti said "I appeal to the citizens and the parents who are watching these images. The images we see are disturbing. "The police showed tolerance in the afternoon but these images are illogical."

It is noted that from early Sunday afternoon the presence of the Police was intense, with 50 patrols in the area, not only for the traffic jam that had been observed but also to maintain distances.
