Nicosia - Deputy Chairman of United Democrat (EDI) party and the former spokesman of Greek Cypriot Administration, Michailis Papapetru declared that the he was trained by some governmental and non-governmental organizations that gave military training before 1963 with the purpose of putting the Akritas Plan into force and massacring the Turkish Cypriots.
As it is written in the liberal Politis newspaper of South Cyprus "Governmental and non-governmental organizations - including me myself- have given military training to some trainees in order to put the Akritas plan into force and murder the Turkish Cypriots" said Papapetru in his confession and underlined that the burden and the responsibility of the inspections are on the Greek Cypriot Administration, speaking at a TV program together with the deputy of the Greens George Perdikis.
According to the newspaper, Perdikis said that the Greek Cypriot Government should have the responsibility of scrutinizing under what conditions the left-winged Greek Cypriots murdered and also the violence applied to Turkish Cypriots afterwards. The daily read:
"At this point Mihailis Papapetru said publicly that before 1963 governmental and non-governmental elements including Papapetru himself with the intention of putting the Akritas Plan into force and killing Turkish Cypriots, gave military training to his Community. Without appropriating Perdikis' language who offered the starring cast of the incident should hear a case, Papapetru said these are not the subjects for now."
