The Department of Prisons issued a new announcement regarding the premeditated murder of a 41-year-old man in the Central Prisons.

The announcement states that "in the context of transparency and to avoid misinformation, in relation to the death of the 41-year-old Turkish Cypriot prisoner, the Prisons Department wishes to clarify the following:

Around 21:15 when the staff was informed for the incident, energy protocols were activated and the necessary measures were taken.  The medical officer was immediately called to the scene and at the same time efforts were made to revive him, until the arrival of the ambulance that took the 41-year-old to the hospital.

At the same time, the Police were informed and arrived at the Prisons for investigation purposes, while the Director appointed an investigating officer to conduct an internal investigation in order to establish the circumstances that caused his death.

From the first moment, the Police, in collaboration with the Department of Prisons, are examining the closed circuit monitoring of the ward, in order to establish the circumstances of his death, the persons who came into contact with him and any evidence that may help to fully solve the case . In particular, various elements from the closed surveillance circuit are being evaluated in relation to persons of Turkish origin and a Syrian who were identified by the Officer in Charge of his Wing, whose details have been given to  Police to carry out the necessary investigations. The inmates in question are serving prison terms for various offenses and were in the same ward as the 41-year-old missing man. The movements and persons with whom the missing person had contact are evaluated. As part of the investigations, searches were carried out in two cells which remain closed and guarded by prison guards, and priority was given to the identification of persons likely to be involved in the cause of death. Investigations are ongoing and statements are expected to be taken from inmates and there is no indication of a motive at this stage. They are being carried out in full cooperation with the Police in order to fully clarify the circumstances that caused his death and the responsibilities of each person. 

At the same time, following instructions from the Directorate, all evidence and incidents that may be related to the cause of his death are being investigated and whether the written instructions were followed by the staff members who were on duty during the controls of the prisoners. From the investigations, any responsibilities of staff members are assessed and it is immediately expected that letters of availability will be submitted for those found to be responsible.

It appears from the fact reports of staff serving in that ward that at the last scheduled count at 17:06 on 27/10/2022, the prisoner was present, with no external injuries or anything suspicious and without reporting anything to the prison guards who they talked with him. The same were found during the previous patrol, where they spoke to the deceased without him reporting anything related to them.

Any phenomena of violent attacks will not be tolerated by anyone. That is why we ask that the case be fully clarified, that the culprits be immediately identified and that those who participated or contributed to causing the death be punished in an exemplary manner. The Directorate will proceed to take strict measures against those involved, including possible disciplinary proceedings, since we repeat and emphasize in the most intense and categorical way, that there is zero tolerance for such actions or omissions.
