January 17, 2025
The authorities of the Republic requested the extradition of four Turkish Cypriots allegedly involved in the Potamia incident. A request was made for 62-year-old Halil Alasan and his two sons, while a new request was submitted for Mehmet Ali Ulucay. Ulucay has confessed involvement and faces charges in a Turkish-Cypriot court. It is estimated that the Alasan family will not be extradited due to their connections with the pseudo-state.
