British father expected in Cyprus court over son’s fatal fall
A 37-year-old British man is expected to appear before a court in Cyprus over allegations that he recklessly caused the death of his two-year-old son. The child died after falling from a fourth-floor window during a family holiday in Paphos.
A British father is expected to appear in court in Cyprus accused of recklessly causing the death of his two-year-old son, The Guardian UK reported. The toddler suffered fatal injuries after falling from a fourth-floor window in Paphos on 12 July. The incident occurred on the first day of a family holiday, according to the report.
The accused man is 37 and has not been publicly named. A human rights lawyer said the father was a victim of an “archaic system”, though the available material did not provide further details of that argument. The source did not state when the court appearance would take place, identify the exact charge under Cypriot law, or provide details of the investigation.
It also did not report the circumstances of the fall beyond the child’s fatal injuries.
