More than a hundred.
Most of the people arrested have been charged with firearms offences or tresspassing on/photographing restricted areas. This last is also common in other countries close to (your) home.

An illegal regime, like the "trnc", cannot arrest anyone for any reason.
The "trnc" and its supporters should be arrested for breaking international law, UN resolutions, ethnic cleansing and the constitution of the republic of Cyprus.
Yes, in effect, anyone "detained" has been held against their will unlawfully, .......... kidnapped.
So take them to court. (Where?)
As ever the journey starts in the Courts of the Republic, as per your friends the Orams, but in this example it would be a criminal matter brought by appropriate prosecuting authorities, prob against individual "police"/kidnappers.... who would then only be able to cross in to the Free Areas to pick up the usual benefits at personal risk of lawful detention.
We did see with VW's friends the Orams that the good citizens of the Free Areas and elsewhere, through the Courts of the Republic, do have a longer reach than he would like to have us believe.
