Police arrested a 35-year-old woman in a flat in Nicosia after tracking her down as part of an investigation into burglary and theft cases.
The woman was wanted by the police and was arrested under an outstanding court warrant. Police said they found in her possession two bags containing a small quantity of a crystalline substance resembling amphetamine and a small quantity of dry cannabis.
Police also arrested the 35-year-old owner of the flat for the flagrant offence of assisting after the commission of a felony.
