A 27-year-old man, who was wanted in connection with burglary and theft cases, as well as for the theft of money from a bank account in Nicosia, was arrested by the Police last night. The man was found driving on the Larnaca-Ammochostos highway and was arrested based on arrest warrants. The cases concern the burglary of accounting offices between December 23rd and January 3rd, where a laptop was stolen, and the burglary of a residence in Strovolos between January 5th and 6th, where money and a wallet with bank cards were removed. One of the cards was used illegally for a small purchase at a cafe. The Police had previously published a photograph and details of the 27-year-old in order to collect information for his identification. Following his arrest, further publication of his details is not deemed necessary. The Nicosia TAE continues the investigations, while a case of traffic violations is also being investigated, as the 27-year-old was driving without a driving license and insurance.
