Court ruling overturns revocation of Cypriot citizenship
April 28, 2026
Five years after the Nikolatou committee's report, the revocation of Cypriot citizenship proves to be a complicated process. Entrepreneur Anubhav Aggarwal successfully overturned the decision to revoke his citizenship in court. Judge Zervou highlighted the lack of due diligence from the Cabinet and noted that the Committee never recommended revocation of his citizenship. The ruling reveals flaws in the revocation process, possibly violating the principle of proportionality. Aggarwal risks becoming stateless as a result of this situation.
