Owners are up in arms over the state-sanctioned dispossession of their land without proper notification nor compensation, leaving their properties in limbo, Ombudswoman Maria Stylianou-Lottides revealed on Monday.
Speaking to CyBC, Lottides described the situation as “disguised property usurpation” and stressed that existing laws and constitutional safeguards protecting property rights must be upheld.
She cited the case of a plot appropriated for a public school in 1996, which remains undeveloped decades
