What grounds exactly will you arrest him on? Some fictional statement he made on TV? Can you actually prove any of this happened? Second, if your going to start arresting people for war crimes then it will have to be a two way street with warrants being issued against many GC's being - ofcourse that is not a priority for a country that gives amnesty to a man like nicos sampson.
The war crime is the execution of a restrained POW and the grounds for his arrest is a self-confession during a TV chat show. The connection with the crime can be made via proof of his presence on Cyprus, and details of his corps, company, and exact role along with any surviving eye-witnesses that may wish to come forward be they ex-Turkish soldiers or other surviving GC prisoners.
If some Nazi war criminals were successfully tried half a century on, I don’t see why this cannot or any other war crime conducted by either party.
