Child abduction attempt denied in Cyprus

Authorities in Cyprus have denied that there was a child abduction attempt at a hotel popular with British and Irish holidaymakers.

An investigation was launched following an incident on June 16 at the Anastasia beach complex in Protaras.

Dundee holidaymaker Greg Letford, 28, told the Daily Record newspaper that a couple had led two young children towards a waiting car and another person had a third child “ready to go”.
