The cause of death of a man whose body was found in a coastal area of Akamas remains undetermined, police said.
A post-mortem examination carried out on Thursday at Paphos General Hospital by forensic pathologist Nikolas Charalambous was inconclusive, as the condition of the body did not allow authorities to establish how the man died.
Police said the man’s identity remains unknown. Samples and other evidence have been collected in an effort to identify him, while authorities are also examining whether the body may belong to a person listed as missing.
The body was discovered at around 5:45am on Monday by a 48-year-old man who was fishing in the area. Police and the marine unit were immediately alerted and attended the scene.
The area was cordoned off to allow for examinations and the collection of evidence, with all standard procedures followed.
Investigations are being conducted by the Polis Chrysochous Police Station and the Paphos CID.
