HC Deb 15 July 1918 vol 108 c720W
Mr. KING

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War how many enemy aliens have been tried by court-martial for espionage in this country in the twelve months beginning 1st June, 1915, 1916, and 1917, respectively; and in how many cases has the death sentence been carried out?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I am afraid it would not be in the public interest to give this information.
