Leonidas Pantelidis, representative of the Greek Cypriot side in the CMP, stated that the number of missing Greek Cypriots from the 1963-1964 period is estimated between 44 and 45, of whom 20 have been identified. The CMP is investigating information regarding the mass murder of 80 Greek Cypriots around 1963, based on the testimony of an eyewitness who passed away 10 years ago. They will attempt to contact Yusuf Kisa, who is believed to have more details, including the possible location of a mass grave.
