SCORES of people have called for Cyprus to be boycotted ahead of tomorrow’s sentencing of a British teenager who has been convicted of “lying” about being gang-raped.

Today’s protest in London started outside the Cypriot High Commission before a march ended up in Parliament Square, via the Foreign Office. It was organised by campaign group Gemini Project.
