A Cypriot appeals court has upheld a nine-month prison sentence for a woman convicted of sharing explicit videos and photographs of another woman without her consent. The ruling, made public on July 21, 2026, rejected the convicted woman's arguments that the punishment was excessive. The case arose from a dispute involving the two women, who were reportedly romantically involved with the same man, leading to claims of jealousy.

The court emphasized the importance of protecting individual privacy and demonstrated a commitment to enforcing laws against revenge porn, which is a growing concern in many jurisdictions. The original conviction was handed down by the Nicosia District Court, which found the woman guilty of distributing intimate material without consent, reflecting the judiciary's intention to serve as a deterrent against similar violations in the future.
