Court Rejects Sykas' Request for Temporary Suspension of DISY Decision

The Limassol District Court rejected the request of DISY MP Nikos Sykas for a temporary injunction to suspend the party's decision to remove him from the ballot. The court ruled that no violation of the DISY statute was demonstrated. The decision was based on the fact that the interpretation and application of the statute in such cases are the responsibility of the party itself and not the judiciary. The court noted that even if there was ambiguity in the provisions of the statute, resolving the issue falls to DISY. Nikos Sykas had submitted the request to suspend the decision until the hearing of his main application, which challenges the legality of his removal.
