Families of EOKA Fighters Sue the Republic of Cyprus
September 6, 2025
The families of Neoklis Panagiotou and Evripidis Nourou, two fighters of EOKA, have filed a lawsuit against the Republic of Cyprus seeking moral reparation and damages, 64 years after their murder. The lawsuit was submitted without any response from the state to earlier requests made by the families. The case will be examined by the courts, and significant evidence and testimonies regarding that era are expected to emerge. The political violence that characterized that period will be a central theme in the trial. This case brings to light the names of important political figures from that time.
