HC Deb 06 June 1930 vol 239 c2563W
sir W. de FRECE

asked the Secretary of State for India the nature of the Afridi attack on our troops on the North-West Frontier of India and the results of the military operations; and if he has any information as to the reasons which have induced these acts of aggression?

Mr. BENN

I would refer the hon. Member to the statement which I read at the end of Questions to-day in reply to a private notice question by the right hon. Member for West Birmingham (Sir A. Chamberlain), to which I would add that the Peshawar Movable Column is reported to be clearing up the area south and south-west of Peshawar.
