TWO TEENAGERS from Nicosia were remanded in custody for eight days on Wednesday in connection with a spate of burglaries.
Police arrested the youths, aged 18 and 19, after a tavern owner in Latsia reported a burglary at his restaurant at 3.20am , informing police that burglars had made off with his television.
Police arrived at the scene to carry out investigations, after which they were able to locate the stolen television in the basement of an adjacent building.
The TV was taken as evidence and brushed for fingerprints. Police also secured witness testimony pointing to the two youths from Nicosia, who were later found and arrested.
The two teens allegedly confessed and gave a statement on 14 other burglaries and thefts as well as attempted burglaries.
