Government hopes no G/C will resort to illegal compensation committee

Nicosia, Aug 22 (CNA) Government Spokesman Kypros Chrysostomides expressed hope that there will not be any Greek Cypriots who will resort to the so called compensation committee set up in the Turkish occupied north of Cyprus.

The Spokesman said that if there are applications to the illegal committee, the government will be able to handle the development, when the issue will be raised before the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

The Spokesman expressed certainty that the ECHR will reject Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktashs machinations, which are contrary to the letter and the spirit of the Convention of Human Rights.
