    [01] ENCLAVED FOUND MURDERED

    KIBRIS (1.9.99) reports that Stelios Lambi Harpas (68), an enclaved living in occupied Rizokarpasso, has been found murdered. His charred body was found in his burned car.

    KIBRIS adds that an unknown person called Harpas the other night at around 22.30 and asked to meet him (place unknown).

    Harpas answered positively to the call and went to meet the caller. A short while later Harpas returned home and at around 23.00 hours he received another call and left his house again.

    He did not return home and his charred body was found in his totally burned car in the forest near his village.

    Harpas's wife told KIBRIS that the man on the phone spoke to her in broken Greek and told her his name was Mehmet.

    KIBRIS further reports that "police" interrogated some people and are looking for a person aged between 23-25 for interrogation. "Police" believe that Harpas was murdered.

    [02] DENKTASH-EROGLU ARGUE OVER NEW MILITARY "BILL"

    According to KIBRIS (1.9.99) the rivalry between Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash and so-called prime minister Dervis Eroglu over the new military "bill" continues. They accuse each other of being responsible for the situation which has arisen.

    Denktash said that "Eroglu must admit that he made a mistake and must stop accusing me or anyone else".

    Eroglu said that "Denktash's statement that he didn't know anything about the new military bill is not true", adding that the "bill" and the relevant information were given to Denktash by the commander of the so-called Security Forces.

    [03] DENKTASH TO VISIT USA

    According to KIBRIS (1.9.99) Turkish Cypriot leader Rauf Denktash will be leaving the occupied area for the USA on 6th September. First he will go to Washington where he will have a series of contacts. Then, on 8th September, he will go to New York where he will stay until the 10th of September.

    During his stay in New York he will meet UN Secretary General Kofi Annan and representatives of countries at the Security Council.

    [05] EROGLU IN TURKEY

    During his visit in Turkey Eroglu will be accompanied by the so-called TRNC ambassador to Ankara Ahmet Zeki Bulunc.

    Eroglu will return on the 5th of September.
