A large amount of contraband items, including banned pesticides, were intercepted and seized by authorities in a coordinated operation, police reported on Thursday.
The seizure happened on November 20 when police and customs officers caught two Greek Cypriots attempting to drive across from the north through a non-controlled point, near the Astromeritis-Zodia boundary.
Police searched the vehicle and found pesticides, freon gas and cigarettes hidden under the back seats. Police
