North launches probe into IVF clinic after sperm mix-up claims

Turkish Cypriot “health minister” Hakan Dincyurek on Thursday responded to international media reports accusing an IVF centre in the north of providing families with incorrect sperm during treatment.

“We have initiated investigations at the relevant centre, taking into account the reports in the press,” Dincyurek said.

He added that the ministry is treating the reports as formal complaints and assured that the findings will be made public once the investigation is completed.
