Cyprus Mail reports procedural hurdle eased in citizenship-by-investment trial

Cyprus Mail reports that defence lawyers told Nicosia criminal court on Friday they had received adequate clarification of disputed additions to the charge sheet. The substantive trial is expected to proceed at the October 19 hearing. The defendants deny the charges; this procedural development is not a finding of guilt.

Elias Hazou's court report attributes the clarification statement to defence lawyer Elias Stefanou and records defendants' denials. No independent transcript or corroborating account of this hearing was obtained. The trial's expected continuation is not guaranteed; the defence reserved fair-trial objections to any later broadening of charges. No allegation is presented as proven. event_time represents publication rounded to the minute, not the hearing time.
