Paphos Man Arrested for Possession of Burglary Tools

April 24, 2024

    Arrest on Tombs of the Kings Avenue

    In the early hours of Tuesday morning, Paphos police made a significant arrest after pulling over a vehicle on Tombs of the Kings Avenue. The car, carrying three individuals, was stopped at approximately 3:45 am for a routine check. The driver, a 35-year-old man, was accompanied by two passengers, aged 34 and 36.

    Upon inspection, authorities discovered the driver in illegal possession of a knife and burglary tools. The knife, described as having a 10cm long blade with a pointed tip, is considered a prohibited item for transport due to its potential use as a weapon. In addition to the knife, the police found various tools commonly associated with burglary.

    The discovery led to the immediate arrest of the driver. He has since been taken into custody where he is being held for further investigation. The incident raises concerns about the preparedness and intent of individuals carrying such items in the dead of night.

    The Paphos police have not released further details regarding the arrest or the identities of the individuals involved. However, they have reiterated their commitment to ensuring public safety and curbing criminal activities within the community. The arrest serves as a reminder of the ongoing efforts by law enforcement to tackle crime and protect residents and their properties.

    As the investigation continues, local authorities are urging anyone with information that could assist in this case to come forward. The Paphos police are determined to thoroughly investigate the matter and ensure that justice is served.
