Six-Year Prison Sentence for Drug Possession
January 9, 2026
A 44-year-old Greek Cypriot was sentenced to 6 years in prison for possessing 2 kilograms of cannabis. The defendant's previous conviction for another drug possession case influenced his sentence. During a search by the Anti-Drug Squad, he attempted to throw the drugs out of the window. He claimed that he was holding the drugs for someone else. The court did not consider his personal circumstances as a mitigating factor.
