December 6, 2024
Cypriot authorities have dismantled a human trafficking ring that organized sham marriages to help foreigners obtain legal residency status. Two men, one from Pakistan and one from India, were arrested and will remain in custody until their trial. The ring exploited vulnerable women from Romania, offering false promises of a better life. The investigation is ongoing to fully address the trafficking operation.
