GREEK CYPRIOTS CONFISCATE SNAILS AND ORANGES FROM TRNC
According to the Greek Cypriot daily 'Alithia', upon the
instructions of the Greek Cypriot Ministry for Agriculture, Greek Cypriot police
at the barricades are confiscating agricultural and meat products purchased by
the Greek Cypriots from the North. The daily reported that this procedure
started last Sunday (5 December) and the same procedure was also implemented for
mushrooms, snails, honey and fish. It also reported that because petrol prices
were cheaper in the TRNC, Greek Cypriots who had bought petrol from the TRNC
were also fined at the barricades.
