"Had u observed or it is said that? if observed plz tell us more abt what type of contacts were these?"
Yes I was present on two occasions when an EOKA B sympathizer met a TC near Kouklia. This was in 1973 in June. I was not close enough to listen to what they said, but I did see packages being handed over. I did not look into the packages. But I know they were handed over for safe keeping and was later told that TC areas were the best hiding places because GC police could not search there.
I was allowed to be there because the GC knew me from London, I was in Cyprus for a holiday and was considered "safe". It is possible that I was used, in the guise of being shown around and being shown the "safe" roads to travel and gave my guide an excuse for moving around the island. Knowing the safe roads, the ones that would not lead you unwittingly into a TC controlled area was important back in those days.
