Turkish-Cypriot journalist Sevgiul Uludag, of the Turkish-Cypriot newspaper Yeni Duzen and of the Greek-Cypriot Politis, in an article refer to two missing Greek-Cypriot soldiers, who are buried in the courtyard of a house under a medlar.

They opened fire on the Turkish soldiers who entered Varosi, when the Turkish soldiers responded, one of these Greek Cypriot soldiers was killed and another was severely wounded on his back and could no longer move his legs. Then he allegedly said to the Turkish Cypriot who knew him: ‘Shoot me. In this condition, it is not possible for me to walk again’. In the end, he was shot by the soldiers, he said. The commanding officer ordered the soldiers to bury these two Greek-Cypriots and they buriedthem under a medlar in a house located opposite the Anorthosis f.c. union club, he said”.
