Having felt that human rights in some areas in Cyprus needed to be improved, such as the right to vote for Turkish Cypriots living in the south, that is, the area under the control of the government of Cyprus, I visited all the party leaders and asked them to remedy the anomaly, provisionally until the political problem was solved. I mean the anomaly created by the separatist Constitutional provisions and the de facto partition of the island. I explained that the right to vote was one of the fundamental rights and that hundreds of Turkish Cypriots living in the south could not elect or be elected.
And that was for my friend main-source who wanted to know if is true, then this part is what have tc done about it:
Every leader told me that I was right and that the House of Representatives should be asked to do something about it. Unfortunately, nothing was done about it until recently, when a Turkish Cypriot living in the south, Mr Ibrahim Aziz, took the case to the European Court of Human Rights and won. Now I understand that the government has tried, or is trying, to remedy the situation so that the Turkish Cypriots living in the south can use their vote in the future. Is this how the matter should have been settled? I wonder!
So even though the case was won but still not implemented, so why are the ROC goverment not complying with the human rights court they defend so staunchly.
