Theresa please accept my apologies.
Richard B..........I didn’t say the ROC courts were illegal just this particular case might be.........the law states that a person should be served with a summons in the language he/she understands (this summons was I am led to believe served to Mrs Orams completely in the Greek Language, which she cant read much less understand the legal aspect of the content) this did not allow Mrs Orams time to prepare a full defence before she was hauled into court. That’s what makes it illegal......due process of law was not followed...............................
People up and down the country (Cyprus) are waiting to see who will be the beneficiaries of this ruling........but take a look at this little gem below and tell me who that might be?
An extract form the Daily Mail 18 July 2006 –
Placed in the section below the headline about Cherie Blaire / Orams Case inviting people to comment on the case in their own words.
I am Turkish Cypriot. My family had 97 acres of land in Pervolia which was recommisioned by the Greek Cypriots and then sold on as Luxury Villas to foreigners. No one in my family claimed any land in the north. This case is riddiculous. If the Greek Cypriots win then my family can sue each of the 40 individuals who broght on my families land and then as we did not have Turkish Land in the north, and we brought apartments when we got married etc. on old greek land. Then we can also be sued? Is a BIG mess and this needs a political solution.
