TWO MORE MISSING
PERSONS IDENTIFIED... (07.11.2008)
Two more missing
persons have been identified by the bicommunal team of scientists
working on the exhumation, identification and return of missing
persons across Cyprus.
Test conducted
on the remains exhumed in the Karpaz District earlier in the year
revealed that they belonged to two Turkish Cypriots killed in 1964.
The remains were identified as Ali Musa and Abdullah Emirzade who
went missing in 1964 at the Yeşilköy-Kaleburnu road in Karpaz.
The two who were
kidnapped were never heard from again.
The Chairman of
the Society of Martyrs Families and Disable War Veterans Ertan Ersan
said that Ali Musa’s remains will be laid to rest at the Kaleburnu
village Cemetery on Saturday with full military honors. He said that
Abdullah Emirzade will be buried at the Gazimağusa Martyr’s cemetery
in the coming days.
To date, the remains of more than 450 individuals have been exhumed
from different burial sites located across the island, with 105
remains of the exhumed individuals identified and returned to their
families.
