Police handcuffed two men for burglary and theft of a house.
Specifically, members of Ledra Substation, in the context of traffic controls, stopped in the morning vehicle, which was driven by the 29-year-old with the 26-year-old as a passenger.
During the check, it was found that the vehicle did not have a valid registration and an extrajudicial fine was issued to the driver.
