The Famagusta District Court expressed its relief for the sentence imposed on the 19-year-old Briton by the Famagusta District Court in a statement by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the United Kingdom, Dominique Raab.
Asked by a reporter if he would ask the President of the Republic of Cyprus to give a pardon to the young woman, Mr. Raab replied: "I am relieved that this vulnerable girl will now return home to begin the recovery process, given all that has happened . I spoke with her mother on Friday. I understand exactly how much she has gone through and what her family has gone through. "My first priority is her health."
He added that "we will follow up on some issues related to the case. I spoke to the Cypriot Foreign Minister about this. "And there is the wider issue for Britons traveling, not just in Cyprus or within the EU, whether they are on holiday or traveling with a backpack, to ensure that they can do so with as much safety and protection as possible."
Asked whether the Foreign Office's travel recommendation for Cyprus would change on the occasion, the British Foreign Secretary said "we have our travel recommendations under constant review, but there are no immediate plans. "What we will want to do is have a discussion with our Cypriot friends and partners about this case when we have obtained the full facts from the lawyer and the family."
