HC Deb 20 January 1954 vol 522 c168W
81. Mr. Swingler

asked the Secretary of State for War what instructions have been issued to the security forces in Kenya, since the trial of Captain Griffiths, concerning the indiscriminate shooting of persons in prohibited areas.

Mr. J. R. H. Hutchison

No new instructions have been issued concerning operations in prohibited areas. These areas consist of thick forest bamboo or inhospitable moorland with more than head high undergrowth. Entry into these areas is prohibited to all persons and this fact is well known to all.
