Talat tries to end stalemate over Guzelyurtlu suspects� trial
TURKISH Cypriot �prime minister� Mehmet Ali Talat yesterday accused the government of committing an �international crime� by refusing to pass vital evidence concerning the murder of businessman Elmas Guzelyurtlu and two of his family members almost three weeks ago.
�The Greek Cypriots say they have the evidence, but keep it hidden. And by keeping the evidence hidden they are protecting those guilty of the crime,� Talat said, again calling on the south�s police to hand over the evidence through �unofficial channels� if they preferred.
Talat also repeated his pledge not to hand the eight suspects now being held in the north over to police in the south.
�If the Turkish Cypriot courts believe there is a case to prosecute the suspects, prosecution processes will begin here,� Talat said."
