Police are investigating the case of a teenager who showed up to school with €15,000 in cash and distributed money to classmates
According to Alpha News, the student gave one classmate up to €3,500, who planned to use it to buy a motorcycle. Another student received €500, while others received smaller amounts.
The incident was reported by a parent to the Strovolos police station, where the school is located.
In response, the school contacted the parents of the children to return the money.
A parent told Alpha News that most of the cash was in €100 notes and appeared “collared,” suggesting it came from a bank. The parent also alleged that a teacher accepted €50.
Both the police and the ministry of education are investigating the incident.
