Court amends charges against developer of Greek Cypriot land in north

Nicosia Criminal Court approved on Wednesday an amended charge sheet, during the trial of Simon Aykut, the businessman accused of unlawfully exploiting Greek Cypriot properties in the north. The approval followed a request by the prosecution service.

The defence raised no objection to the changes, which were presented alongside a list of 12 new witnesses the state intends to call. Defence lawyer Maria Neophytou also accepted this addition without dispute.
