Political Uncertainty Surrounding Nikos Syka's Case

January 8, 2026

The situation surrounding MP Nikos Syka is complicated as the woman who had reported abuse has withdrawn her complaint. Nevertheless, the Legal Service requested the lifting of Syka's parliamentary immunity, indicating that the case will proceed. The leadership of DISY faces challenges as the decision to remove Syka from the Limassol ballot is postponed. Political developments raise concerns, making it difficult to make decisions without a clear view of the case's progression. Ultimately, the Political Bureau meeting was postponed until the hearing of the case.
