what are the statutes of limitations on criminal property fraud in Cyprus

[Clyde111]

An illegal property transfer occured in Cyprus in 1999, I have recently just found out about it, are there statute of limitations in prosecuting this crime?

Hello Clyde and welcome to the forum

You will find an approximate translation of the Statute of Limitations at http://www.news.cyprus-property-buyers. ... o_2015.pdf

Dear Nigel the only exception to the statutes, seems to be that if a defendant has been away from Cyprus, and the statute does not apply. Im overseas and haven't been to Cyprus in a very long time. Do you think i could be exempt? This is truly a crime, of what they have done,and the police need to get involved...Is there anyone lawyer or officer of the court i could get in touch with that can clarify the situation and course of action? thanks

Hi Clyde

I suggest you get in touch with a lawyer to clarify the situation. The British High Commission publishes a list of English speaking lawyer who should be able to help - List of Lawyers in the Republic of Cyprus.
