Yeah Mr Rauf Denktas was a special type of a man. He was very talented, skilful talker, qualified Lawyer and good politician. He was one of the people who could acclaim that he was a man who had lived more than one life time. This tenacious man in his final moments and last words he was reportedly said half Turkish and half Greek for an independent Turkish Cypriot State. It’s a pity our T.R.N.C founder (Mr Denktas) passed away without seen his beloved Northern Cyprus as a free state. Brother Denktas, for ever rest in Peace.
