This is going to keep happening now. Such a shame. Maybe CCTV needs setting up.

Hi Lil,

This is part of an article in the PafosPress:-

It should be noted that the area is covered by a closed monitoring system by the District Administration and it is expected that the case will be investigated immediately to identify the perpetrator.

The heading says "the OLD Paphos sparrow thief" I would think that the thief would be young? :mrgreen:

Are you sure it is not the same one? Cyprus Mail's report today is what we reported on Sunday. Have two gone now?
