MEMORANDUM Illegal Construction in the Occupied Area (As Revealed MEMORANDUM Illegal Construction in the occupied area (As revealed through Turkish and Turkish Cypriot Press reports since February 2007) Construction boom takes place on Greek Cypriot properties According to CYPRUS TODAY (3-9/2/07), “a Multi-million-pound shopping development1 comprising 1,000 shops and stalls is set to transform the fishing village of Bogaz, (occupied Bogazi), near Gazi Magusa (occupied Famagusta) – which the developers see as “being like Las Vegas” within five years. An Israel-based company plans to start building a traditional Turkish-style bazaar complex this summer and the project is due to be completed in three years. An area of 45,000m² located 400 metres from the village on the road towards Bafra (occupied Vokolida) has been earmarked for the ambitious project which is set to become the biggest one-stop shopping centre in ´North Cyprus´. Various housing developments are currently being built in the area which has a population of about 2,000, rising by another 1,000 in the summer months. Nine hotels – three of which are nearing completion – are planned for nearby Vokolida. A spokesman for Big Old Bazaar Developments Ltd said: “It’s going to be like Las Vegas in the next five years. We have a vision and we think now is the time to invest as the area will be unrecognizable in a few year’s time”. KIBRIS (8/2/07) reports that the breakaway regime is preparing to establish an “Investments’ Agency”, aiming at the increase of the investments which are necessary for the development of the economy and at determining and applying strategies for supporting and promoting local and foreign investments. The “Agency” will also be aiming at improving the environment for investment and attracting international investors to the occupied areas of Cyprus. A “strong team” at the self-styled prime minister’s office is working for the materialization of the “Agency”. The “permanent undersecretary” of the so- called “prime ministry”, Mr Ontac Duzgun, said, inter alia, the following: “Both serious investments and about three billion-dollars of capital are waiting for a decision at various bureaucratic levels as a result of our gaining legal status, even though we partly did, especially after the Annan Plan and the referendum procedure. The state should be organized according to it. It is an application which will pave the way for consultancy in a professional sense in the country”. KIBRIS (28/2/07) reports that the Cyprus Turkish Contractors’ Union held a protest in order to draw attention to problems being faced by the construction sector and to protest against the unplanned development in the occupied Cyprus. Under the title “An unprecedented property scandal”, AFRIKA (1/3/07) reports that the “government” is putting into force a practice that was never done before. Two plots that belong to Greek Cypriots in Famagusta were sold to the “Medical Centre - Hospital”. The plots, the value of which is said to be 100 thousand sterling for each one, were sold as follows: 53 thousand sterling were given for the first one and 52 thousand sterling were given for the second one. The money taken from this sale will be deposited in an account of the self-styled “council of ministers” and the money gathered will be paid as compensation to persons as equivalent for the property they abandoned in the free areas 1 According to the distribution o population by ethnic group in 1960, Bogazi village was inhabited by 90 people of whom 88 belonged to the GC community. of the Republic of Cyprus. The paper adds that the self-styled deputy of the Republican Turkish Party Okan Dagli is among the owners of the “Medical Centre Hospital”. In this case, the occupation regime far from taking measures to safeguard the property rights of the displaced persons is selling property that belongs to another in order to provide cash for its treasury. The statement of Enver Ozturk, self-styled “minister of tourism and economy” that their aim is to increase the beds in the fields of tourism from 13.600 to 40.000 in 2012 (HALKIN SESI 5/3/07) proves beyond any doubt that the occupation regime not only is not willing to take any measures to protect the property rights of the displaced persons but it follows a policy of alienating the displaced persons from the properties. Under the title “Constructions are being built now in Morfou”, KIBRIS (7/4/07) reports that the majority of the new constructions during the past two years were built in the occupied areas of Kyreneia and Trikomo, but a boom in the constructions took place in the occupied area of Morfou, where the building of new constructions had been stopped. The paper notes that KADEM Company conducted a research in December 2006 upon a request by Tosunoglu Group. Officials from the two companies announced on Friday the results of the research. KADEM’s director, Muharrem Faiz said that the research was conducted in 724 houses, 237 working places and 212 architects and engineer offices. He noted that according to the results of the research, Trikomo and Keryneia are the areas where most of the constructions were built during the past two years. The increase in Trikomo was 13.7 % and in Keryneia 13.5 %. On the same day KIBRIS reports that Ozkan Murat, self-styled “minister of internal affairs”, stated that during the term of their “government” the areas of occupied Trikomo and Karpass peninsula are turned into construction sites. Mr Murat toured the Karpass area last Friday. He noted that the one fourth of his “ministry’s” budget is spent for the above- mentioned areas. Murat said that they have already opened tenders for the construction of a new “court” building at Trikomo. CYPRUS TODAY (7-13/4/07) reports the following: “Turkish Cypriot businessman Ali Ozmen Safa is in negotiations to take over the completion of part-built homes at Amaranta Valley in occupied Klepini village. The Medview Homes managing director was approached by Aga Development Construction founder Gary Robb and an initial meeting was held six weeks ago, CYPRUS TODAY has discovered. Builders downed tools at the Aga Development project in September 2005, leaving around 300 people, mainly British, with only partly constructed homes despite investing tens of thousands of pounds each. KIBRIS (18/4/07) reports that the opening ceremony of the Malpas Hotel and Casino was held yesterday. The Hotel, which is built in occupied Ayios Epiktitos village, covers an area of 35 thousand square metres and is a five star hotel. The hotel has 174 rooms and is of 428-bed capacity, five restaurants, six bars, four swimming pools, a salon where 180 persons can gather and offers services of tennis, football, basketball and other sports. AFRIKA (23/4/07) reports that the “law” for acquiring a residence will soon pass from the self-styled assembly. The “law” will be implemented first in occupied Famagusta. The self- styled “Prime Minister” Soyer has said that the resources for this are ready and added that the “citizens” will become owners of houses and that will be “just like paying rent”. He noted that at the first stage 400 residences will be built on a territory of 25 donums (Tr. Note: A land measure of 1000 square meters) in the Besevler area in occupied Varosha. The self-styled “minister of internal affairs”added that the houses will be from 75 square meters to 130 square meters. Commenting on the same issue KIBRIS (23/4/07) reports that Soyer and Murat made the above statements during a meeting yesterday with inhabitants of occupied Famagusta. The paper writes that Soyer said that a great economic development took place in the occupied areas during the last three years and added that this development drew the attention of the international community. He noted that the GDP increased from 985 million euros to two billion euros and the budget deficit decreased to 7 % of the GDP. CUMHURIYET (23/4/07) reports that Mr Erdogan ιn statements he made during a visit to Bursa’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said that until four and a half years ago there were no investments in the occupied part of Cyprus. He noted: “There was nothing except a couple of hotels. But look now brand new hotels have began to be built. Their number exceeds fifteen. Investors began to come to Cyprus from various places of the world. … Per capita income had been around 4.700 dollars when we came to power. Now it became 12 thousand dollars. …The motherland gives the necessary support. This is the way these things happen. …What have you lost? What have they lost? Until four and a half years ago there was a Cyprus with absolutely no political respect in the world, but now there is a northern Cyprus which is being respected with political invitations to its president of the republic, its prime minister and its ministers. RADIKAL (25/4/07) reports that Reha Arar, chairman of the executive committee of the Merit Hotels, which is the biggest foreign investor in occupied Cyprus, stated that their investments in occupied Cyprus will reach 250 million dollars with the construction of another hotel which will offer therapies using sea water, which is planned to start operating in 2008. Mr Reha Arar added that the new investments which started in the construction sector will have a significant contribution to Cyprus tourism as well. RADIKAL cites also the names of the hotels that “Merit Hotels” have in occupied Cyprus: Merit Crystal Cove2, Cyprus Garden and Green Karmy.

  • 1 Memorandum Ownership Status of Hotels and Other
    MEMORANDUM OWNERSHIP STATUS OF HOTELS AND OTHER ACCOMODATION FACILITIES IN THE OCCUPIED PART OF THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus hereby publishes a list1 of hotels situated in the Turkish occupied part of Cyprus. The majority of these hotels belong to Greek Cypriot displaced persons who were forced to leave their properties following the Turkish invasion of 1974 or have been built illegally on properties belonging to displaced Greek Cypriots, in violation of the latter’s property rights and without their consent. A number of hotels belong to Turkish Cypriots or have been built on land belonging to Turkish Cypriots. The European Court of Human Rights, in its Judgment of 18 December 1996, on the individual application of the Greek Cypriot displaced owner from Kyrenia, Mrs. Titina Loizidou, against Turkey, and in the Fourth Interstate Application of Cyprus against Turkey of 10 May 2001, upheld the rights of the refugees to their properties. In the Loizidou case, the Court ordered the Government of Turkey to compensate the applicant for the time period of deprivation of use of her property and to provide full access and allow peaceful enjoyment of her property in Kyrenia. The right of the displaced owners to their properties was reconfirmed in the decision of the European Court of Human Rights (Dec. 2005) regarding the application of Myra Xenides- Arestis v. Turkey, and has since been repeatedly reconfirmed in a multitude of cases brought by Greek Cypriot owners of property in the occupied part of Cyprus against Turkey]. It should also be reminded that, according to the United Nations Principles on Housing and Property Restitution for Refugees and Displaced Persons (the Pinheiro principles) “all refugees and displaced persons have the right to have restored to them any housing, land or property of which they were arbitrarily or unlawfully deprived..”.

  • Party Proscription, Militant Democracy and Party System Institutionalization
    Prescribing Democracy? Party Proscription, Militant Democracy and Party System Institutionalization Angela K. Bourne and Fernando Casal Bértoa Introduction When democracies ban political parties, one of the central issues that usually emerges in both public and academic debate concerns the effects of proscription. Some argue that proscription may lead to radicalisation, a growth of militancy and readiness to use violence (Minkenberg, 2006, 36). Restrictions on the party may be only temporary especially if a party has deep social and ideological roots in a community, or if state authorities are reluctant to prevent the party re-emerging under a different name (ibid, 37; Husbands, 2002, 64) The party ban is not a suitable mechanism for the „civic re-education‟ of extremists (Husbands, 2002, 64) and may merely treat the symptoms rather than the more complex underlying causes of dissatisfaction with the status quo (Gordon, 1987, 389). Ban proceedings may increase public exposure and opportunities to claim martyrdom or reinforce anti-establishment critiques (ibid, 391). Some also argued that, in the long-run, banning parties may damage the foundations of a democratic polity: The party ban may be interpreted as „lack of faith in the democratic process‟ and an „admission of failure‟ (ibid, 390) or its „chilling effect‟ may signify a silent weakening of democratic rights in the state (Niesen, 2002, 256). On the other hand, proscription may be punishing for the targeted party, as the „cost of claim- making increases across the board and for particular members‟ (Tilly, 2005, 218). A party subject to ban proceedings may see its room for manoeuvre, its visibility and mobilising capacity severely curtailed by reductions in its organisational and financial resources, access to the media and through stigmatisation.

PERMANENT MISSION OF THE REPUBLIC OF CYPRUS TO THE UNITED NATIONS BZO SECOND AVENUE NEW YORK, N. Y. IOOI7 Ref: 2002/77/2 Excellency, I have the honour to refer to the decision of the President of Cyprus, Mr. Kyprianou, to visit during this month the Greek Cypriot citizens of the Republic in the occupied area of Karpass. This decision, together with a request that the necessary facilities might be provided by the United Nations, was communicated yesterday to your Special Representative, Ambassador Galindo Pohl, who undertook to communicate with the Secretary-General on the subject. Sub- sequently, Ambassador Pohl informed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that Mr. Denktash places conditions for such visit, to the effect that a letter by the President of the Republic should be addressed to him as President of the so-called "Turkish Federated State of Cyprus", or that a meeting between them be arranged to discuss the matter. The President has the legitimate and fundamental right to visit citizens of the Republic in any part of the territory, particularly when, as in this case, the visit is motivated purely by humanitarian reasons, having regard to the situation of the Greek Cypriot citizens in the Karpass.

  • Photographic Exhibition Organized by the Cyprus Municipalities Under Turkish Military Occupation
    PHOTOGRAPHIC EXHIBITION ORGANIZED BY THE CYPRUS MUNICIPALITIES UNDER TURKISH MILITARY OCCUPATION THE DESTRUCTION OF THE EUROPEAN CIVILIZATION OF CYPRUS BY TURKEY THE TRAGEDY GOES ON… “If we should hold our peace, the stones will cry out” (Luke 19: 40) THE DESTRUCTION OF THE EUROPEAN CIVILIZATION OF CYPRUS BY TURKEY THE TRAGEDY GOES ON… “If we should hold our peace, the stones will cry out” (Luke 19: 40) The photographic exhibition is organized by the nine occupied municipalities of Cyprus: Ammochostos, Kyrenia, Morphou, Lysi, Lapithos, Kythrea, Karavas, Lefkoniko, and Akanthou. The exhibition aims at sensitizing the broader public to the tragic consequences of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. An effort is made to trace, as much as possible, the pain caused by the war and the uprooting of tenths of thousands of people from their homes. At the core of the presentation lies the systematic destruction of cultural heritage in the island’s occupied areas, which persists to this day as a result of ethnic cleansing and religious fanaticism. As proof of the above, damages to archaeological sites, ecclesiastical monuments and all non-Muslim cemeteries, as well as thefts intended to offer antiquities for sale at a profit, are showcased here. In some cases, photographic evidence which has been brought to light for the first time is put forth. This exhibition is divided into thematic units which are separated from one another by their different colours. Each panel includes a title and a brief text, whilst being supplemented by pertinent ‘before and after 1974’ visual material. The first unit introduces the nine occupied municipalities, with a historical outline, their most significant monuments and their present state.
