Don't know. What is for sure - there were many UGL's operating from that country. In fact so many that I just can't imagine why all parcels shipped from this small country were not automatically seized and checked in EU/US. Since 2010 most of them got bust. I know of some (from the local press in Germany) Germans running internet sales of anabolic steroids from Cyprus - got bust recently...turning tens of millions of $$$

I never heard of anyone being prosecuted for steroid trading or possession by Cypriot authorities. So it's very likely tolerated there, just as in Greece. But it's just my guess.
