A German Court of Appeal will issue its final decision on the fate of the remaining 85 treasures stolen from the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus, including fragments of church wall paintings, icons, a manuscript of an Armenian gospel and 40 prehistoric antiquities.
The Court of Appeal of Munich is expected to issue its final decision in relation to the remaining items found in the possession of Turkish dealer in illicit antiquities Aydin Dikmen in apartments he maintained in Munich, unless by February 13, 2015 there is a friendly settlement. A total of 173 looted treasures found in Αydin Dikmen`s possession in Munich were repatriated to Cyprus last October.
