Both the Ayia Napa holiday apartment and swimming pool in which 18-year-old Savvakis Alexandrou drowned two years ago were illegal, the lead investigator looking into the case ruled.
According to a report on Saturday by Phileleftheros, the Paralimni investigator Michalis Charalammbous said there was a possibility the death of British Cypriot Alexandrou was caused by actions or inactions by third parties.
For that reason, he had sent his findings to the attorney-general’s office for further handling.
Alexandrou was discovered at the bottom of the complex’s swimming pool on August 18, 2014 by other guests. He was given CPR at the poolside but was pronounced dead at Paralimni general hospital after being taken there by ambulance.
Charalambous questioned why the establishment was operating if it had no permit from the Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO), why the pool was operating if there was no permit for it too, why there was no lifeguard, particularly as there was a bar next to the pool and why the pool was so dirty that its bottom could not be seen.
