British expats protest in London
Country: Southern Cyprus
23 May 2008 A group of British expats based out in Cyprus took to the streets of London this week to protest against the Cypriot judicial system. The campaigners gathered at Alexandra Palace where Cypriot President Demetris Christofias was giving a talk. The protest was led by Conor O’Dwyer, 38, from Surrey who purchased a Cyprus property off plan in Cyprus in 2005 and has since entered in to a lengthy legal battle with the developers. After failing to receive justice in Cyprus, O'Dwyer decided to take his protest to London during Christofias’ visit at the weekend. Holding placards calling for justice and an end to corruption, the protestors camped out in front of the venue. O’Dwyer was joined by the relatives of expats in Cyprus who are also experiencing legal difficulties over Cypriot properties that they have purchased. Problems include non-issuing of title deeds, structural faults, illegal building, or developers extorting immovable property tax and transfer fees, they say. O’Dwyer commented: “We didn’t see the President ourselves but hundreds of guests came past our protest stand and accepted leaflets.”
“Some were shocked at the severity of the cases represented but few were surprised with problems like the issuing of title deeds as their own families had fallen victim to this trap.” O'Dwyer was badly beaten in Frenaros in January this year after taking photographs outside his home in Cyprus. The developers who sold him the property, and with whom he is engaged in a legal dispute, were later arrested and charged with assault. O’Dwyer spent over a week in Larnaca hospital.
