A woman from Kyrenia was arrested for practicing “witchcraft” and for taking money in exchange for promises of a Republic of Cyprus passport, the Turkish Cypriot police announced on Tuesday.
The woman, aged 43, reportedly told two people she had “acquaintances” in the Republic and that she could provide them with identity cards and passports from the Republic in exchange for money.
She allegedly took a total of €3,600 from them.
