"The Democratic Alarm expresses its sincere condolences for the death of Nikos Falas.
A man who identified with the history of both the Democratic Alarm and Cyprus has passed away today. Nikos Falas was a fighter of EOKA in the period 1955-59, while later he co-founded with the founder of the Democratic Alarm Glafkos Clerides as a founding member and executive of the party. Since then, its course has been consistently identified with the course of the Democratic Alarm, always on the ramparts and in the front line, and in all the events that marked the country's recent history. At the same time, actively working with the public, he set a course as Chairman of the Coordinating Committee of Karpasia, while he will remain in the collective memory of Cyprus and as a pioneer of culture and national issues of the country, remaining a fighter until the end.
The Democratic Alarm mourns the loss of Nikos Falas and expresses its deep and sincere condolences to his family and relatives. "
