Former editor-in-chief of Kibris newspaper Süleyman Ergüçlü died on Monday at the age of 69.
The funeral for the veteran journalist will take place on Tuesday in north Nicosia after the midday prayer.
Ergüçlü worked at Bayrak Radio for years, and was the editor-in-chief of Kibris. He also created the first online news portal in the north Kimgazet which later closed down. Ergüçlü later went on to serve as the chairman of the Turkish Cypriot Journalists Union.
Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar expressed his condolences saying Ergüçlü held “important positions in both broadcast and print media for years. He will always live in our hearts.”
