Supreme Court Denies Indian Detainee's Request for Release

October 2, 2026

The Supreme Court rejected the Indian detainee's request for immediate release from the Immigration Detention Center. The decision was based on the potential for deportation, as he had not sought further regularization of his stay in Cyprus. The detainee had pending criminal cases and was ordered for deportation due to illegal residence. His appeal against the detention and deportation resulted in a suspension of the deportation, but the final decision is still under review. If the District Court's ruling upholds the orders, deportation to India will proceed.
