to muddy the waters further, the Herald (not the police!) went to Thivim station and queried the station staff who said no foreign girl caught a train at that time.

Are these suspicious deaths or does the number include those by natural causes?

TV publicity for Brits buying property in Cyprus
 
Typical - publicity for British buyers of property in North Cyprus - I can't believe more Brits have 'purchased' in North Cyprus than have in Goa, yet the Cyprus buyers are getting a half hour TV programme on Friday May 22nd at 8pm & what are British buyers in Goa getting? yes, sweet F.A. - no change there then!

From the trailer on TV - the situation of the buyers in Cyprus sounds like it could be similar to Goa, except the government in North Cyprus are looking to demolish the properties rather than just confiscate them!

Mediterranean Nightmares: TonightITV 1 Granada
Following a recent European Court of Justice ruling which forced a British holiday home owner to return the land to its original owner in northern Cyprus, Mike Nicholson investigates whether thousands more could lose their properties in the same way SUB
News Magazine/Current Affairs
Friday 22nd May on ITV 1 Granada from 8:00pm to 8:30pm

Think there is something on This Morning tomorrow about Property Purchase in Spain, and how people are left in the shite.

Only caught half of it.

Re: In To-day's Newspapers
 
Think the This Morning one is also about Cyprus - will watch just in case there is anything of interest to any of us on it.

Remy - didn't one of our BE friends get his money back in Goa, and say he was off to buy in North Cyprus? :confused:

a_f_d May 18th 2009 5:47 pm

Re: TV publicity for Brits buying property in Cyprus
 
The difference between Goa and North Cyprus is that anyone buying in North Cyprus should have been fully aware that Turkey had invaded and people had occupied property rightfully belonging to 'Greek Cypriots'. In Goa most people checked the legal position and followed the rules.

I imagine a fair percentage are natural causes including accidental drowning and traffic accident.

That still leaves a substantial amount with unidentified cause, most of which are written off as "natural", or "accidental" and case closed, saves police time, and no proper investigative procedure here, or forensics.
