Police arrested a man about to take possession of a large amount of ecstasy at a Nicosia post office while a search of his residence yielded more drugs, police said Friday.

"A 22-year-old Nicosia resident was arrested and detained yesterday (Thursday) to facilitate inquiries concerning an ongoing investigation into a case of illegal importation, possession, and possession with intent to supply of drugs," police said.

"The 22-year-old was detained at a Nicosia post office, where an operation was set up for the controlled delivery of a parcel containing 1,190 ecstasy tablets."

Police said that in a search of his residence, they discovered 2.2 grammes of cannabis, 1.2 grammes of cannabis resin, a paper wrap containing hash oil, a set of precision scales, three grinders used to crush cannabis with traces of the drug, and 30 grammes of a beige powder which appeared to be MDMA. All the above were taken as evidence as were two mobile phones, a computer, and various documents.

The man was later remanded in custody for seven days by Nicosia court.

Nicosia drug squad are investigating the case.

There was another DNM arrest in Cyprus not so long ago, an international shipment of 28g of weed. That, combined with the phrase "to facilitate inquiries concerning an ongoing investigation into a case of illegal importation" tells me that CY LE is very well aware of drugs in their mail. And we're talking the cultural equivalent of some goody-good white American town in suburbia, so not too cool about any sort of drugs.
