Handcuffs for 3 in Limassol - 49-year-old intercepted for inspection and attacked a police officer

Three people were arrested in Limassol by TAE, following court warrants, for the case of illegal possession of property and assault on a police officer. During a check on a car, the 49-year-old driver allegedly pushed a police officer to escape, but was arrested after resisting. In the car and during a search of an apartment, burglary tools, gold jewelry, and mobile phones were found, for which the suspects gave no explanation. The three suspects, aged 38 and 49, were taken to the Limassol TAE offices for questioning. The authenticity of the IDs presented by the two 38-year-olds is being investigated. The investigation continues to determine the origin of the items and their involvement in other criminal activities.
