A 24-year-old Greek Cypriot was sentenced to six months in prison by the BB Court in Episkopi, after he was caught walking around with a knife in Trahoni on October 25.
BB police officers arrested the man who was located in a park in Trahoni after a phone call from a citizen.
Deputy Constable George Lewis, who led the operation, praised the officers and the citizen who reported the incident.
He explained: “This was another successful operation and we will continue to enforce the law and those who ignore it and break it by committing offenses will be punished.
"Our goal is and will remain to create and maintain a safe and fair environment for those who live, work or pass through the communities within BB."
