New arrest in drug trafficking

The Paphos drugs squad (Ykan) has made a further arrest in connection with a drug trafficking case from May, it announced on Friday.

During investigations into a case of illegal possession of drugs with the intent to supply, evidence emerged against the 33-year-old. A judicial arrest warrant was issued against him and he was arrested at around 1pm on Thursday.

The investigation of the case began after 10.71kg of cannabis and a loaded gun were found at the residence of a 34-year-old man on May 7. The slightly older man was stopped for a police check while driving in Paphos.

Based on a court warrant, the 34-year-old’s home was searched when police found the drugs and the gun.
