HC Deb 28 June 1916 vol 83 c810
14. Mr. JACOBSEN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, in view of the fact that British officer prisoners of war captured at Kut have received excellent treatment at the hands of the Turks, he will arrange that all Turkish prisoners of war in our hands shall receive specially favourable treatment and cause such action to be brought to the notice of the Turkish authorities?

Lord R. CECIL

The Turkish prisoners of war in our hands have been properly treated throughout, and the Ottoman Government are well aware of this from the reports on internment camps for Turkish prisoners of war which have been drawn up by United States officials and communicated to that Government from time to time by the United States Embassy at Constantinople.
