HC Deb 20 October 1953 vol 518 c245W
62. Mrs. Braddock

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware of the harsh treatment, and subsequent court-martial and sentence, on 22288898 M. Brennan, I/R/Norfolks, B.A.P.O. 1, Hong Kong; and if, in view of this soldier's previous service, he will have a full inquiry made into all the circumstances of this case.

Mr. Head

I have made inquiries and there is no evidence of harsh treatment of this soldier. He has recently been tried by court-martial and I should not like to say more until I have studied the proceedings.
