HC Deb 19 November 1952 vol 507 cc1836-7
4. Mr. Driberg

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether a report has now been received of the disturbance in the prison camp on Cheju Island in which 56 Chinese prisoners were killed while seeking to celebrate a national festival; whether this incident has been investigated by the International Red Cross as well as by the United States military authorities; and if he will circulate in HANSARD, or publish otherwise, a factual and balanced account of the incident.

Mr. Nutting

The report from the United Nations Command has not yet been received. I am not aware of any investigation by the International Committee of the Red Cross. I shall certainly communicate to the House any further information as soon as it is received.
