Former Cypriot policeman jailed for prostitution offenses
A former policeman in Cyprus has been sentenced to 14 months in jail for running a brothel in his apartment and pimping.
The Cyprus Mail reported Tuesday that George xxxx, a 28-year-old former special constable, plead guilty for seven charges of prostitution offenses along with his accomplice during Monday's hearing.
Cypriot crime investigators raided earlier this year Georgiou's apartment in Strovolos, a small town near the capital of Nicosia, found him in sexual act with another man, his accomplice, and a Moldovan woman.
Officers soon discovered astonishingly that the defendant was none other than a colleague at the Nicosia police headquarters. XXXX confessed later that he had rented a room to two illicit prostitutes and earned money from them as well.
"The seriousness of the crime," said the judge, "does not allow the court to impose a punishment other than imprisonment for the defendants."
