    [03] Foreign Minister - Freed Greek Cypriot - Statement

    Nicosia, Apr 26 (CNA) -- Foreign Minister Ioannis Kasoulides was very critical today of the illegal Turkish Cypriot regime with respect to the five-month unlawful detention of Greek Cypriot Panicos Tziakourmas, who was set free today.

    "My position is that Tziakourmas was freed from being a hostage of a regime, which has no scruples," Kasoulides said here today, adding that "this regime accepted to see an innocent man abducted, even after strong evidence the authorities of the British Bases supplied, to be used in exchange for Turkish Cypriot Omer Tekogul."
