[01] Spokesman calls for British action
The Cyprus government continues to believe that Britain should try and find
ways to secure the release of the Greek Cypriot abducted who continues to
be illegally detained by the illegal Turkish Cypriot regime in the Turkish-
occupied part of Cyprus., Government Spokesman Michalis Papapetrou said
yesterday.
"The British are concerned about this case and are making a lot of moves on
the diplomatic and political fronts but we continue to regard them
responsible and they should try and find ways to secure his immediate
release", he said.
Panicos Tziakourmas was abducted from his car within the British military
base of Dhekelia by Turkish occupation troops on 12 December.
Britain has said it continues to coordinate efforts in the case with the
government and the UN, and believes there are options available which can
be considered with regard to any future move.
