According to the Police, after a coordinated operation in which members of the TAE, MMAD, and EAO participated, the 49-year-old was located and arrested a short time ago in an area of ​​Larnaca.

It is recalled that Uven had been hospitalized in a private clinic since 9 December in the Larnaca district due to health problems. From the preliminary investigations, it appears that while the 49-year-old was confined to his bed with handcuffs,  he managed to detach the protective metal iron of the medical bed , resulting in the release of one of the handcuffs that was on the bed. The 49-year-old then escaped through the window of his room, which led to a semi-basement parking lot.  

It is recalled that  both the officer who gave the instructions  for guarding the 49-year-old,  as well as the police officer who was guarding him, were suspended .

Uven  was arrested on December 6 at  Larnaca Airport , pursuant to  a European Arrest Warrant issued by the authorities of another European country, in connection with financial crimes allegedly committed in that country. He was being held in custody, pending the completion of his extradition proceedings, to the authorities of that country.
