Cyprus serial killer: Justice minister resigns over case

#Cyprus's justice minister has resigned after a man admitted killing seven migrant women and girls, in a case that went undetected for nearly three years.

Ionas Nicolaou said he was leaving his post for reasons of "political responsibility", adding that he wasn't personally involved in the case.

A 35-year-old Greek-Cypriot army officer is in custody.

Officials are accused of not properly investigating missing persons reports because the victims were migrants.
