HC Deb 27 May 1919 vol 116 cc1052-3W
Sir JOHN BUTCHER

asked the Home Secretary whether he can give the names of the persons who are respon- sible for the circular recently issued from the Egyptian Association in Great Britain, Imperial Hotel, Russell Square, accusing British troops of infamous atrocities?

No, Sir. The question of taking proceedings is now under the consideration of the legal authorities, and in the meantime I cannot give the names.
