Every move of the arsonist was captured frame by frame, including the moment he was spotted by the security guard, who found himself in danger as the vehicles burst into flames in the arson attack in Limassol.
CCTV cameras recorded every movement of the perpetrator in yesterday’s arson attack on luxury vehicles worth over two million euros, including a Lamborghini.
Philenews obtained video footage showing the perpetrator moving on foot inside the fenced car park where the vehicles were located, dousing the expensive cars with flammable liquid using a canister he was carrying.
Seconds before completing his task, the perpetrator—dressed in black and wearing a hooded sweatshirt—is spotted by the security guard, who approaches him.
According to the video, the guard appears to address him, with the perpetrator attempting to flee. At that moment the vehicles burst into flames, with the guard at close range and in serious danger.
The guard then quickly moves away to protect himself and immediately attempts to chase the perpetrator, who runs to escape.
Limassol CID investigations have been in full swing since first light, with investigators gathering footage from CCTV cameras in the area to trace the perpetrator’s movements before and after the criminal act.
At the same time, investigators are examining the motives behind the attack, as well as the possibility that the perpetrators were attempting to send a specific message through the arson.
Meanwhile, according to sources, the owner of the vehicles and a close associate of the murdered businessman Stavros Demosthenous went to Limassol CID offices to give a statement.
