Older women warned by the Cyprus police

The Cyprus Government maintains that playing cards for money l under your own roof is illegal, and that even the elderly are not excluded from this law. The Cyprus police has not hesitated to carry in prison 42 older women this week for playing cards in the privacy of their own home. Most of the women were aged between 75 and 85 years. The oldest was 95 years old and the youngest was 50. Women organized weekly parties in turn in their respective homes.

Ladies do perhaps disturb anyone with their games, but apparently they have a jealous neighbor. Police officers arrived at the home after receiving a complaint d a neighbor. He alleged that the property was used as a House of noisy games. We believe that the neighbor has not been invited, which aroused his jealousy.

The police confiscated 530 maps and 546 poker chips. The women allegedly played for around 100 euros each. They have been imprisoned and then released. They will likely receive nothing d other than a small fine if they are convicted.

"Most of my friends are widows and at our age, there is not much to do. For years, we organise parties every week, changing from Rotary way home. We get together, drink tea and play cards. We put into play only a few euros for s fun. The only thing the police managed to do during these raids is to ridicule the women a certain age. », said one of the participants, aged 87 years.
