All news on the topic: Christos Christodoulides

More than a year after OCCRP and CIReN reported on the two-decade legal saga of lawyer Christos Christodoulides — who absconded from a U.K. prison after a 2005 sentence for immigration fraud — the Cyprus Bar Association has decided to temporarily suspend his law license.

Cypriot authorities stalled for 13 years on a European Arrest Warrant filed by the U.K., where Christos Christodoulides absconded from prison. They finally let him serve the remainder of his sentence under house arrest in Cyprus.
