The Greeks insisted that Georgadjis had supplied the explosive with which assassins tried to blow up Papadopoulos' car. Georgadjis thereupon helped form the Unified Democratic Party, which might have won enough seats in June's scheduled parliamentary elections to hoist him back into the Cabinet - against Makarios' wishes. Thus his murderers could have been members of one of the pro-Makarios secret armies on the island. They could have...
