Legal Action Against Foreigners Purchasing Property in Northern Cyprus

According to Fileleftheros newspaper, preparations are being made to launch a new legal battle against foreign citizens, particularly Israeli nationals, as well as Russians, Iranians, and citizens of other foreign countries who have purchased former Greek Cypriot immovable properties in Northern Cyprus.

The newspaper reported that the Republic of Cyprus is preparing to launch a new legal struggle against foreign citizens, namely Israeli nationals, Russians, Iranians, and citizens of other foreign countries, who have purchased former Greek Cypriot immovable properties in Northern Cyprus. The initiative is said to be based on the "Orams case" which refers to the British individuals who abandoned the aforementioned property after legal proceedings were initiated against them.

The newspaper emphasized that the issue of buying and selling former Greek Cypriot immovable properties in Northern Cyprus has reached alarming proportions, based on reports in the Northern Cypriot press and data available to the Greek Cypriot authorities. It also highlighted that the Cypriot Minister of Foreign Affairs, Konstantinos Kombos, has taken steps to examine the file regarding the sale of former Greek Cypriot immovable properties in Northern Cyprus.

While the news does not provide detailed information on how the Orams case will be utilized in relation to these property sales, it refers to a report by Yenidüzen newspaper.
