HC Deb 02 March 1931 vol 249 c6
14. Mr. DAY

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he can give any information of the recent attack made upon a party of military police at Zaingthwe, near Tharawaddy?

Mr. BENN

The only recent attack upon the police of which I have official information was one in the Henzada District in which 250 villagers attacked two police officers and a few constables. Nine villagers were killed and, on the Government side, the driver of a motor omnibus was seriously injured.

Mr. DAY

May I ask whether any police were injured?

Mr. BENN

I have given the hon. Member that information.
