"AG moves to give Turkish Cypriots voting rights
By Staff Reporter
ATTORNEY-general Petros Clerides said he is expecting a law to be approved in parliament allowing Turkish Cypriots to be able to take part and vote in all elections � except being able to run for President.
Clerides added that it was vital that the law be approved so as not to have legal action taken against the government in the future particular after Ibrahim Aziz, a Turkish Cypriot who has always lived in the south of the island, took the Cyprus government to the European Court of Human Rights for not allowing him to vote in certain elections and won.
Asked by reporters over the possibility of Turkish Cypriots wanting the positions they once held before the 1974 invasion, back, Clerides said that he found that idea �highly unlikely�."
