Police arrested a serving officer and two other suspects in two separate operations in Limassol on Thursday targeting organised crime and money laundering.
The 45-year-old officer faces investigation for money laundering. A search of his home turned up various items of evidence, and a court order froze assets worth more than €220,000, including a luxury car.
The second operation led to the arrest of a 49-year-old man and a 50-year-old woman, who are being investigated for participation in a criminal organisation and money laundering. A search of their home also yielded evidence, and a court order froze assets worth more than €200,000, including four luxury cars.
Investigations are ongoing.
