In addition, two bicycles—which had been reported as stolen—were found in a common area of the apartment building where the 50-year-old resides. As a result, the 50-year-old was arrested for the flagrant offense of unlawful possession of property and was taken into custody to facilitate the investigation.
The suspect was brought before the Nicosia District Court today, which issued a five-day detention order against him.
The Nicosia Central Police Station is continuing its investigation.
