Cypriot police have issued photos of two men wanted in connection with the murder of a Kent man in the holiday resort of Ayia Napa.
George Low, 22, of Ladywood Road in Dartford, died after being stabbed in the neck outside a bar in the early hours of Sunday morning. His friend Ben Barker, also 22, was stabbed in the back multiple times during the same attack and is recovering in hospital.
Local officers are searching for Turkish Cypriot duo Mehmet Akpinar, 22, and Sali Ahmet, 42, with warrants issued for their arrest on Tuesday. It emerged this afternoon that a third Turkish Cypriot man, from Nicosia, is also being sought for helping them flee to the north of the country.
Akpinar's girlfriend, a 49-year-old Greek Cypriot woman from Larnaca, is in court today on suspicion of also helping the pair escape.
According to the Cyprus Mail, Koulla Anastasiou told officers her boyfriend had confided to her that he and Ahmet had stabbed George and Ben following an altercation.
She said the argument was triggered when the men rebuked the Britons for urinating in public and admitted travelling to Ayia Napa on the night of the killing to deliver a change of clothes to her boyfriend.
She is then said to have returned the next day to pick up a phone he had hidden.
Eyewitnesses told KentOnline this week that the attack was "completely random", as tributes to George continue to pour in.
Speaking outside the family home on Monday morning, his father Martyn said "he could not wish for a better son".
More than £15,000 has also been raised in his memory since the attack, which took place on what was set to be the pair's last night of a week-long holiday on the Mediterranean island.
