According to his complaint, two men on a motorcycle struck him with a bat as he rode his moped along Dianellou Street at around 2:30 am, causing him to lose control and hit a parked car.
The attackers fled the scene as the rider fell into the road and was dragged along the surface, his complaint states.
He was taken to Larnaca General Hospital, where he received first aid before being discharged.
