Syka Case: File with Evidence Submitted to Legal Service – Lawsuit Against DISY Planned

The case involving MP Nikos Syka has reached a critical point, with the file regarding the complaint of violence against his former partner being submitted to the Legal Service for evaluation and instructions. Despite the complainant withdrawing the complaint, the Police proceeded with an independent investigation, taking testimonies from witnesses in Athens and collecting medical and forensic evidence. Offenses such as violence, psychological violence, bodily harm, and threats are being investigated. Nikos Syka has already testified to the Police denying the allegations. Simultaneously, he is preparing to file a civil lawsuit against the Democratic Rally (DISY) regarding the party's decision to exclude him from the electoral list for the upcoming parliamentary elections, considering the decision illegal. The case has taken on political dimensions, as DISY's decision to exclude Syka from the ballot sparked reactions. The MP himself denies the charges and seeks to be vindicated both legally and politically. The Legal Service is expected to carefully review the file and decide whether to proceed with the case in court. This development is expected to have significant implications for both the personal life of Nikos Syka and the political scene in Cyprus.
