Police said between 6am Saturday and 6am on Sunday 13,222 checks were carried out islandwide.

In Limassol, consistently high in positive Covid cases which is being pinned on lack of compliance with the measures, 88 people and two premises were booked.

In Nicosia the number was 23, in Larnaca 35, in Paphos 24 plus one businesses. In the Famagusta area 17 bookings were made, and in the Morphou area, 4.

Reports later on Sunday said police were also investigating a video that was circulated on social media showing a group of people holding a carnival party at an unknown location.
