GREEK CYPRIOTS CONFESS TO
MONEY LAUNDERING (31.07.02)
Greek
Cypriot officials have confessed that during much of the 1990s when the
international community shunned Yugoslavia and despite the U.N sanctions
imposed it assisted in the transfer of money belonging to ex-Yugoslav
President Slobodan Milosevic from Yugoslavia to South Cyprus, where it was
laundered.
According
to the Greek Cypriot daily ‘Politis’, as reported in the Turkish Cypriot
press, the Greek Cypriot administration, after first having denied any
connection with the transfer and laundering of Milosevic’s secret billions
from Yugoslavia to South Cyprus, have now started to confess to their
involvement in the issue.
