Police in Paphos on Wednesday made a sixth arrest in connection with a case of forged documents being imported to the island.

The latest to be arrested is a 37-year-old man.

The arrests began last week when police received information regarding a courier shop in the town to which forged documents were reportedly being sent.

Police apprehended three people taking receipt of packages at the courier shop, finding driving licences and a residence permit hidden in polystyrene inside the packages they collected.

All three were arrested, with two further arrests being made on Monday.
