University and police work together on modernisation programme

Police on Monday signed a cooperation agreement with the University of Cyprus (UCy) and its research centre KIOS for technological and scientific partnership covering programmes to help modernise the force.
The deal was signed by police chief Zacharias Chrysostomou, and the UCy rector Constantinos Christophides.
Chrysostomou said that the cooperation will focus on promoting joint programmes “to manage challenges related to the field of security, access to equipment for the development of innovation, and joint organisation of scientific seminars and workshops”.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
