Drug Dealer Sentenced to 7 Years in Prison in Limassol

The Permanent Criminal Court of Limassol sentenced a 21-year-old to 7 years in prison for drug trafficking in a park in Limassol. The defendant admitted to trafficking large quantities of cannabis, cocaine, and ecstasy pills. The Court highlighted the increase in drug-related crimes and the need to prevent such actions. The sentence includes concurrent prison terms for each type of drug, with the longest sentence relating to the possession of cannabis with intent to supply. The defendant's immediate admission, cooperation with the Police, and clean criminal record were taken into consideration, and the sentence is counted from the date of his arrest. Two other defendants who deny the charges are still pending, and the hearing will continue.
