Cyprus Spokesman: Murder of T/Cs heinous; has nothing to do with free
areas
Nicosia, Jan 16 (CNA) Government Spokesman Kypros Chrysostomides
described as heinous yesterdays murder of three Turkish Cypriots in the
government controlled areas of the Republic, noting however that it
appears the motives and differences were economic and have nothing to
do with the free areas.
Fifty-two year old Elmas Ali Guzelyurtlu was found on Saturday morning
in a ditch near his vehicle and his wife Zerrin, aged 50, and his
16-year-old daughter Ayce were in the backseat. All three had been
shot from close range in the head.
Guzelyurtlu was a banker and businessman who had fled to the free areas
in 2000 with his family after his bank collapsed during the financial
crisis in the occupied areas.
