Greek Cypriot Lawyer detained in north
Life is full of absurdities in north Cyprus. Rule-of-law is a concept that is taken as something to be abused, manipulated, changed as "they" wish. Constandinos Candounas who is the lawyer representing G/Cs who brought up court cases against (mainly) foreigners residing on G/C properties was detained (briefly) in north. This is not the first time. The game is supposed to become lawful. A Cyprus Mail reports: " In July last year, Turkish Cypriot authorities announced they were preparing amendments to their laws that could lead to the conviction and imprisonment for up to three years of bailiffs and lawyers who seek to deliver summons in the north.". Not much more comment is needed. See Cyprus-Mail Article .
