Cyprus's Criminal Justice Evaluation and Challenges for Investigators
October 26, 2026
Cyprus ranks 3rd out of 143 countries in criminal investigation according to the World Justice Project index. Despite a decline in its performance in recent years, Cyprus maintains a high position in the global ranking. However, police unions warn that the investigators are aging and not being adequately replaced. Additionally, Cyprus showed improvement in the rule of law category, climbing to 28th place. The situation calls for attention and strategic planning to maintain the quality of criminal justice.
