There is crime in the free areas of cyprus, most of it is committed by drunken BRITISH soldiers & holidaymakers, the cyprus police also have a hand in most of the organised crime.
As for the OCCUPIED areas, well there are hundreds of criminals living there because there is no EXTRADITION TREATY with any other country in the world, the north is full of WANTED CRIMINALS, DRUG DEALERS, SEX OFFENDERS , RAPISTS and its also the base for several disgusting & illegal porn websites.
The poorly paid police turn a blind eye to all this because they get paid bribes from the crooks in the north , most of them are from BRITAIN.
