HC Deb 24 February 1930 vol 235 c1853
38. Mr. HANNON

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he is in a position to make any statement to the House on the result of the representations made by His Majesty's Government to the French Government for the extradition of a person named Francis Lorang?

Mr. A. HENDERSON

Further evidence and additional charges against Lorang were forwarded to the French Government by His Majesty's Ambassador at Paris on 21st January and 1st February. This evidence is still under examination by the French judicial authorities who are dealing with the case with all possible expedition.

Mr. HANNON

Is there any truth in the announcement in the newspapers that this person has been brought to justice?

Mr. HENDERSON

I am not responsible for what newspapers say.
