Nikos Sykas waives parliamentary immunity

MP Nikos Sykas announced his waiver of parliamentary immunity in response to allegations made against him. In a statement, he emphasized his commitment to respecting human dignity and condemned all forms of gender-based violence. Mr. Sykas stated that he wants the investigations by the competent authorities to proceed without obstacles, regardless of the withdrawn complaint. His decision to waive immunity underscores his desire for the truth to be revealed. The Legal Service had already filed a request for the lifting of his immunity to the Supreme Court, with a hearing scheduled for Monday, January 12, 2026. However, the MP's move renders the hearing unnecessary.
