HC Deb 23 September 1909 vol 11 cc811-2W
Mr. COWAN

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether his attention has been called to a statement that, subsequently to an interview at which the European Consuls protested against the Sultan of Morocco's cruel treatment of the followers of the Moorish pretender, Mulai Hafid, caused E1 Roghi to be put to death by torture; and whether, if this statement is confirmed, he will advise His Majesty to withdraw the British representative from Fez, and will approach the Governments represented at the Algeciras Conference with a view to concerted action against the present Sultan of Morocco?

Sir E. GREY

The hon. Member is referred to the reply to a similar question which I have made to-day to the hon. Member for South Donegal.
