Two suspects aged 28 and 29 have been arrested on suspicion of committing a series of burglaries and thefts in the government-controlled area of Morphou, police said on Saturday.

Peristerona officers, following a tip-off, caught the two in an open area around 7pm on Friday in possession of various items which they allegedly admitted they stole from a storage space and a house in the area.

After they were arrested, the suspects told police information about ten other cases of house and warehouse burglaries and theft.

The case is being investigated by the Morphou CID and the Peristerona police station.
