Authorities arrested a 36-year-old man at Larnaca Airport on Thursday after discovering he is wanted by Ukrainian officials.
The suspect, whose name appears on an international Red Notice, is linked to an investigation in Ukraine involving alleged property fraud and conspiracy.
Officials said the man arrived at the airport around 6:30 p.m. to depart Cyprus. During passport control, officers flagged his details and took him into custody under a provisional arrest warrant. He is now being held as authorities prepare extradition proceedings.
The Larnaca Criminal Investigation Department continues to probe the case.
