Soldiers and Pseudo-Police Attack Farmers in Mammari

Turkish soldiers and pseudo-police attacked Cypriot farmers working in their fields in the Mammari area, within the Dead Zone. The farmers reported that they were attempted to be arrested, thrown stones at, and grabbed by the neck. According to their testimony, a Turkish soldier tried to take the keys from their vehicle, while members of the occupation army and pseudo-police tried to climb onto the tractor driven by the father. As the father tried to drive away, a pseudo-policeman fell off the tractor. The incident occurred within the Dead Zone, but according to reports, the Cypriot soldiers who arrived at the scene were limited to an observer role, without intervening to stop the attack. The incident demonstrates the continued harassment of Greek Cypriot farmers by the Turkish side.
