Members of the Cyprus Police, in cooperation with investigators from Austria and Europol, yesterday conducted a coordinated operation in Larnaca, where they located and arrested a 29-year-old man.
Against the 29-year-old, a European arrest warrant was pending from the Austrian authorities, for the offenses of fraud, participation in a criminal organization and money laundering.
After the arrest, the 29-year-old was brought before the Larnaca District Court for extradition proceedings (he submitted for his extradition), which ordered his detention until he is handed over to the Austrian authorities.
The coordinated operation was carried out in parallel in both Austria and the Czech Republic, with the involvement of Europol and Eurojust.
