The Larnaca District Court sentenced the three young people from Troulloi who were responsible for the death of 16-year-old Panagiotis Stefanis to 18 months in jail suspended sentence. At the same time the Court issued a surveillance order of three years while they will be supervised by a guardianship officer who will submit a report on the three every month.
The three were found guilty because they urged Panagiotis to consume a large quantity of alcohol and as a result the latter suffered acute alcohol poisoning that caused unconsciousness and suppression of his reflexes. As a result of consuming large quantities of alcohol Panagiotis vomited and then he inhaled the vomit and was asphyxiated.
