A 43-year-old man from Paphos was remanded in custody for two days on Wednesday on suspicion of having twice broken into a warehouse and robbed tools from inside.

Paphos police’s assistant operations director Michalis Nikolaou said that on Sunday, a 33-year-old man had told police that a total of €2,000 worth of tools had been stolen from his warehouse in the village of Kissonerga.

The man then called the police again on Tuesday to report that another break-in had occurred at the warehouse, and that another €1,500 worth of tools had been stolen.

Police then tracked down the 43-year-old and arrested him.
