HC Deb 28 November 1927 vol 211 c6
14. Mr. LANSBURY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether, in view of the fact that an Indian convict in the Benares central gaol was struck by a warder with a danda with such force that he lost consciousness and soon afterwards died, he will cause a special inquiry to be made into the circumstances of this particular case and a report made on the matter?

Earl WINTERTON

My Noble Friend has asked for a report on the facts alleged.
