Airport drugs bust

A Hungarian woman is in police custody after reportedly attempting to smuggle three kilos of cannabis into Cyprus.
According to police, the 35-year-old woman was placed under arrest at Paphos Airport after the drugs were found in her luggage. Investigators later moved in to arrest two men from Nicosia, aged 24 and 18, who they believe were set to meet the woman and purchase the drugs.
All three suspects are set to be taken before a Paphos Magistrate this morning where investigators will likely request to keep them eight days in remand.
The woman, who is said to be a Hungarian national but is living in Holland, had flown into Paphos from Brussels.
She is under investigation for illegal possession of Class A drugs, illegal possession of Class A drugs with intent to sell and use and conspiracy to commit a crime.
Drug Squad Police (YKAN) later searched the home of the two men from Nicosia where they found a makeshift greenhouse and some cannabis plants at the home of the 24-year-old.
