A 29-year-old man was arrested at Paphos airport on Thursday after attempting to depart with a counterfeit Czech identity card.
Police said the man presented himself at the airport’s departure area at around 10:30pm on Thursday attempting to fly to Vienna.
A check of his identity card revealed that it was forged.
It is believed the man admitted the identity card was forged and that he is not a citizen of the Czech Republic.
He was taken into custody charged with forgery and impersonation, and is expected to appear in court on Friday.
