Authorities in Larnaca have initiated investigations into an apartment complex following various complaints. Initially, a multi-agency meeting involving police, migration, and social welfare services was convened to address allegations of illegal occupancy, unauthorized subletting, utility theft, and threats against a management committee president.

Subsequently, the situation escalated when the District Administration Organization of Larnaca (EOAL) issued an evacuation order for the DI. PA. complex on Grigori Avxenitiou Avenue. The order, affecting 64 apartments and 12 businesses, was prompted by findings of serious structural instability and damage to the building’s columns. Residents and business owners faced a three-day deadline to vacate, leading to significant distress over the short notice and the difficulty of finding alternative housing.
