Arrest Spree Following Larnaca Shootings - Three Remain at Large

The Larnaca Police have arrested five individuals wanted in connection with the shooting that took place near the Larnaca ADE last Saturday. Initially, the Police had released photos of eight foreign suspects, five of whom have been arrested, while the search continues for the remaining three. A 48-year-old Cypriot was arrested earlier, but one of the three arrested after a raid on an apartment was released. The incident, which was captured in a widely circulated video, has raised concerns among authorities, with the Minister of Justice mentioning the possible involvement of factions and organized crime. Initial investigations suggest the incident is linked to protection threats.
