Ever since the occupation regime opened up it’s gates for movement of people it has been clear that it practices a 3 fold policy:

a)Use every means to show the GCs they are a "state" with strict law enforcement -both military and civilian
b)Use every means to suckup money from "visiting" GCs
c)Oppose as much as they can whatever relations between GCs and TCs that might end up to the GC earning money.The opposite however -the TC earning money- is allowed.

I am sure every GC who "visited" the occupied can give you an example. Here are some from personal experience:Go there for fishing? You will end up in jail for not obtaining a permit for fishing. Go there to repair the tractor that a TC has bought from you? You will end up in jail for practicing a profession without permit. Go there to pray in a deserted church? End up in jail for not getting a permit. Go there to play at their casinos? Oh that’s fine, no problem with that, "cause" they can suck your money. The same for eating at restaurants, drinking coffee at cafes, or spending your night at a stolen GC hotel.
Go see how your own house is doing? You may or may not up in jail depending on the mood of the illegal occupier who might or might not call the "police" and complain for an intruder.
Plus the usual road traffic controls where they usually stop GC cars for checking. I had a friend recently who got arrested and charged for spying just because he was carrying a GPS navigator. Ended up paying € 300 fine…
Forgot any tools (a hammer for example) in your car? Most probably you will be charged for carrying weapons.
On the other hand though the easiest thing is for GC drug dealers or drug addicts to visit the occupied for supplies.No problem there, see all these just leave their money there. Not even one arrest until today.The same goes for visiting whorehouses.

Put your own examples below.

And then we have TCs in here asking us have you "visited" to see with your own eyes how democratic and European we are? It seems the whole policy is orchestrated not only by the occupation regime but from those TC partitionists who are anxious to help it catch unsuspected GCs in the trap.

Can't visit a Christian Church for Prayer .... but you can visit various "icon museums" for an entrance fee.

If you want to visit the most religiously significant place on CY, the Christian Holy Place at the Monastery dedicated to The Apostle Andrew at the top tip of the Karpas, you have to pay a fee to the Occupation Regime (ostensibly for donkey welfare).

... and when you do get to Apostolos Andreas and leave a few coins or a note in the strong box as a donation to the Christian Church there, the money is taken away every night and pinched by Thieves dressed as "police".

I was told of this a few years back when my wife appraoched the said box. She changed direction and gave a few notes to the last remaining 'kallourkes'/nun. She tried to refuse......maybe she was afraid we would get into trouble. I dont know. It is sickening. It would be a good gesture if those at the top would allow the RoC to look after the monastery, but politics is a dirty business. The last time I mentioned this someone posted an article and it seemed a two way 'dirty' business.

... donations have to be made over very, very discretely.

Dont you have to get a permit to fish in the GC south?

Can you stroll in and work without the correct papers?

Or do you not pay traffic fines?

Fuck and you claim to be a European country...bullshit.
