This is nothing compared to what this paper and its journalists went through in the past.
Their premises have been bombed,journalists jailed with false spy allegations,machinery/equipment confiscated due to debts owed as compensation for the court cases brought against them by right wing politicians (including Rauf Denktash) In fact it was Denktas himself who gave a statement when they were arrested for being spies..
He even went as far as saying "i saw the evidence these guys are spies"
Afrika is the only newspaper which is brave enough to publish true views of Turkish Cypriots.
They are deprived from all the financial support given to other press as advertising fees by the government but they still manage to survive and be the true voice of Turkish Cypriots.
I am proud to say we buy at least one copy a day.
I say "at least" because some days we buy more than one copy just to support the paper.
Did you get yesterday's copy, Iceman? You might have some idea from the contents why the online version was shut down. I have a hunch it has to do with the Atilla Olgaç story.
