Three people have been arrested in Limassol as part of ongoing organised crime arrests linked to investigations into money laundering and participation in a criminal organisation.

Among those detained is a 45-year-old member of the police force, who is being investigated for alleged money laundering offences. Authorities also searched his residence, where several pieces of evidence were seized.

A court order has frozen assets exceeding €220,000, including a luxury vehicle.

In a separate but related operation, a 49-year-old man and a 50-year-old woman were also arrested.

They are being investigated for alleged participation in a criminal organisation and money laundering activities.

During a search of their home, investigators seized additional evidence, while assets worth more than €200,000 were also frozen under a court order. These include four luxury vehicles.

Ongoing investigations into organised crime

Authorities said the arrests form part of broader efforts to combat organised criminal activity on the island, following intelligence analysis and coordinated police operations.

Investigations are continuing.
