HC Deb 02 June 1908 vol 189 c1700
MR. MACKARNESS (Berkshire, Newbury)

I beg to ask the Under-Secretary of State for India whether he can state approximately the number of killed, wounded, and prisoners on the British and Mohmand sides, respectively, in the recent fighting at Kharga.

MR. BUCHANAN

In the recent fighting near Kharga the enemy were reported to have lost 140 killed. The numbers of wounded are not known. The losses among the British troops engaged were two Indian soldiers killed and nine wounded.

MR. MACKARNESS

Were no prisoners taken?

MR. BUCHANAN

We have no information on that subject.

MR. MACKARNESS

I beg to give notice that I will repeat the Question on 11th June.
