Cyprus to extradite Lithuanian estate agent over illegal property sales in occupied areas
Cyprus is moving forward with the extradition of a 53-year-old Lithuanian estate agent following the rejection of her appeal by a French court. The woman was arrested at Nice Airport in May under a European arrest warrant issued by Cyprus, related to allegations of illegally selling Greek Cypriot properties in the occupied territories.
The French court dismissed her appeal against the warrant earlier than expected, prompting the next steps in the extradition process. Authorities confirmed that the formal procedures for extradition will be completed soon, allowing the Lithuanian woman to be handed over to Cyprus for trial.
The case highlights ongoing legal efforts by Cyprus to address property usurpation in occupied areas. The accused now faces charges based on the alleged unlawful transactions involving properties in disputed regions of Cyprus.
