The Paphos criminal court sentenced a 57-year-old to ten years in prison after finding him guilty of drug trafficking.

The case concerned 10kg and 907g of cannabis and 942g of cocaine found during a police raid in Paphos.

The court heard that on February 4, 2025, acting on a tipoff, members of the drug squad stopped a car driven by the 57-year-old in Paphos.

Police found bags of cannabis and cocaine in the car and another package of cannabis while searching the suspect’s residence.

The 57-year-old was arrested.

On Friday, the court passed concurrent sentences – the longest of which was ten years – for possession and trafficking of drugs.
