The SBA police is continuing investigations into the identity of a human body found in a car engulfed in flames in Xylofagou.
As reported by the CyBC, the authorities were alerted about the car soon after 10pm on Saturday and rushed to the scene, a highway exit to Xylofagou.
CyBC reported its sources as saying the body is believed to belong to a man and that the fire was set maliciously.
The car is registered in the name of a 69 year-old woman from a nearby community but at least three other people are also known to regularly use the car, the national broadcaster said.
