Authorities in Limassol are currently investigating a significant fraud case involving the theft of €700,000. One suspect has already been taken into custody.
According to a statement from the police press office, the investigation began after the director of a local company reported the theft of €700,000. Acting on this complaint, officers arrested a 45-year-old man on Monday evening. The suspect is now being held in custody.
