    Nicosia, Sep 6 (CNA) -- International Federation of Overseas Cypriots (POMAK) President, Haris Sophoclides, who lives in the UK, rejected today reports in the British press that he donated funds to the British Labour party.

    The Sunday Telegraph claimed in an article published September 5th that "the Greek Cypriot Brotherhood, of which Sophoclides is President, was listed as a donor to Labour in its 1997 accounts" and that the POMAK President pledged on March 23 1999 to donate one million sterlings to the Labour party.
