Police in Paphos arrested a 17-year-old and his mother, 49, in connection with the cultivation of cannabis.

The arrests followed a search of a home in Peyia at 8pm on Wednesday, where officers found five cannabis plants between 18 and 25 centimetres high.

Police said the pair claimed they cultivated the drug for their personal use. Police said, they were released on Thursday without being charged pending examination of the evidence.
