A 75-year-old Greek Cypriot was arrested yesterday in the occupied area by the so-called police of the pseudo-state, in possession of 3 kilos of cannabis which he allegedly bought from drug dealers in the occupied areas.
According to information, the Greek Cypriot had gone to the occupied area accompanied by a 35-year-old foreigner and after allegedly buying the drugs, they were immediately arrested by the so-called police.

The alleged drug traffickers, according to the same information, are agents of the so-called police of the pseudo-state who deliberately sell the drugs to Greek Cypriots and then denounce them.
