The Turkish Cypriot member of the Committee on Missing Persons Gülden Plümer Küçük has announced that the remains of 450 missing persons have been unearthed so far.

Mrs Kucuk said the excavations are continuing in North and South Cyprus.

The excavations in the North are being carried out in Guzelyurt and Gungor, and in the South, in Petrofan.

Mrs Kucuk explained that members of the committee had inspections in Bosnia-Hercegovina which has been experiencing tragic problems about missing persons and mass graves.

She pointed out that 30-thousand people were reported missing in Bosnia and that DNA tests have been carried out there since 1998.

`We are in a better position in terms of infrastructure and human resources` she noted.

Providing information about the work being carried out by the Committee in both sides of the island, Mrs Kucuk said the remains of 450 of 1970 missing persons have been found.

The remains of 107 – 31 of them Turkish Cypriots, have been handed over to their families until now.

4 to 5 million dollars are being spent annually for exhumation and identification of the remains and some 1-million dollars of this amount are being provided by North Cyprus and some 2 million dollars by South Cyprus.

The rest is being covered by donations from foreign countries, which include Turkey and Greece.

The missing persons issue is expected to be solved with the help of the international communities by 2010.

"The remains of 107 – 31 of them Turkish Cypriots, have been handed over to their families until now. "

How much does it cost to mention the national origin of the other 76 dead?

I don't know whether only 31 of the 107 missing has been identified as being TC's and the remaining 76 has not been determined yet, or that propagandist does not want to mention the remaining 76 as being GC's or Greeks, since it does not serve their agenda, just because there would be more dead GC's/Greeks than TC's. These bastards even want to propagandise these poor victims even when they are dead, as if it wasn't bad enough when they were alive, but don't wait for Halil to print a balanced information when it comes to doing his job for Bayrak. Always follow the money to see where the truth may lie when propaganda is used, and Halil's money comes from Bayrak. Enough said.!

Shes talking about this dismal and very sensative issue from the viewpoint of the TC respresentative, are numbers that important or the fact that finally these poor souls are being laid to rest.

Dear Mrs Kucuk since your English appears to be poor, may I suggest next time you wish to convey such information, you say it like this:

"The excavations are continuing in Cyprus".

... it is less of a mouthful (leaving more room for your Turkish foot!)
