§ 14. Captain CUNNINGHAM-REIDasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether the Governor of Cyprus has reported to him on the murder during January of M. Triantaffilides, one of the recently nominated members of the executive council of the island; and if there was any reason to believe that this crime was political in its nature?
Mr. M. MacDONALDThe answer to the first part of this question is in the affirmative; but my hon. and gallant Friend will appreciate that while investigations are still proceeding it would not be proper to express any opinion as to the motive of this crime.
§ Captain CUNNINGHAM-REIDCan the hon. Member assure the House that the widest and most searching inquiries are being pursued to sift this matter to the bottom?
