Two Cypriot cops have been suspended after they were filmed having sex in a patrol car in broad daylight.
A resident of Larnaca in southeastern Cyprus was driving through an open field this week when they spotted the male and female police officers having sexual intercourse in their parked car.
The passerby captured the scandalous moment in a video that has now gone viral on social media, with hundreds of users reacting to the shocking clip.
‘If I or you did it and a patrol car was passing by, we would be arrested’, one user pointed out on social platform X.
Another said that the cops ‘must suffer the consequences of their actions’.
The police officers involved were quickly identified and have been suspended. One cop is understood to have been on-duty at the time, while the other was not, local media reports.
Cops are now carrying out a criminal and disciplinary investigation.
Criminal charges could include neglect of duty as well as public indecency, according to Cyprus Mail.

‘Such actions and behaviours are unacceptable as they insult the work of thousands of our members’, a police spokesperson said.
But a statement from the Cyprus Police Association has called for members of the public to respect the privacy of the officers involved.
‘From the very beginning, the leadership of the force gave instructions for an immediate investigation of the incident, so that any responsibilities that arise can be attributed. The public’s trust is precious to us and there is no room for excuses on issues of ethics and professionalism’, the statement said.
‘At the same time, however, we are watching with concern the way in which the public debate has been diverted into a tidal wave of discredit for the entire police force,’ it added.
Commissioner for Personal Data Protection Irini Loïzidou Nicolaidou said in a statemen said the cops featured in the video are responsible for their actions noted that ‘the priority is to protect the privacy of their families, especially if there are minor children involved’.
The viral video comes months after it was revealed that in the UK, more than 25 cops were sacked or disciplined in the past year after being caught having sex on duty.
According to The Sun, information requests to UK forces found at least 26 officers faced disciplinary hearings in the last 24 months for having sex on duty, 20 of whom lost their jobs.
But a number of forces — including the Met, West Midlands and Derbyshire — refused to give details, meaning the true total is likely to be higher.
In one case, a Sussex officer turned off his body cam to have sex with a woman in her house after she had made a 999 call.
In Northumbria, another member of the force was sacked for having sex with his lover in a police van parked up outside a supermarket.
One Cleveland Police officer was also banned from policing after filming herself performing a solo sex act in a toilet.
The figures led one former Chief Superintendent to blast these disgraced officers as ‘damaging the reputation of the police service’.
