THE REST
BRS want clarity on Citizenship Bill – Editor: I won’t waste my time repeating what they want to know because the answer is no, there will NOT be automatic granting of voting right (citizenship) for ex-pat residents, I believe.
Expat’s wife still seeks justice four months on – because her husband died after being discharged from hospital after a minor road accident. Apparently an administrative inquiry cannot be launched until a police inquiry has been completed.
Baby crash death: mother fined – for not ensuring the baby’s safety in the back of her car. Editor: only yesterday I saw a car drive past with a child sitting on the front passenger’s lap.
Bailiff jailed for 9 years over theft – of court fines.
Plans for Bellapais sewage drawn up – after courts stopped the building of an unlicensed facility.
Minimum wage increase – to 1675TL per month from 1560TL.
‘Turkish vessels in Cyprus legal’ – according to the UN special Cyprus envoy, Espen Barth Eide. Greek Cypriots was not pleased that he should have told everyone this fact.
Bailiff story interesting. The one who appeared at my house whilst I was away wanted rather more than the debt turned out to be when paid directly into the court….re the costs of a K5 case.
“Police enquiry”. Would that take the same length of time as their enquiry into Pauline’s laptop Polly?
The enquiry will never be allowed to reach a conclusion, my Cousin.
Or indeed the attempted assault using a motor vehicle on Agile, or the breaking into ceasing and keeping Pauline’s villa. So many police complaints, so little investigation NO action.
Ranks are closed and the victims are ignored.
One reason I was so glad to get away from that place.
There is corruption everywhere to some degree, but that place takes the biscuit.
Imagine a country where a judge can find for someone who has blatantly broken the law, despite all the evidence placed before him.
Disgusting!
