HC Deb 13 July 1893 vol 14 c1456
MR. F. S. STEVENSON (Suffolk, Eye)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether Her Majesty's Government will take steps to obtain from the Consul at Aleppo a statement of the names and sentences of the Armenian prisoners confined in Aleppo gaol, on charges of alleged sedition, showing whether they are detained by warrant of the Governor, or by order of a Court of First Instance; whether the prisoners are undergoing torture; and whether Her Majesty's Government will take energetic measures to secure the release of those who have not had a fair trial?

SIR E. GREY

The Consul at Aleppo will be instructed to make inquiries.
