HC Deb 05 February 1958 vol 581 cc174-5W
65. Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what de tails have been received from Her Majesty's appropriate consular officer in France of the violent assault committed in Paris on a British subject, Lieut.-Colonel Kittoe, of Doddinghurst, Essex.

Mr. Ian Harvey

Lieut.-Colonel Kittoe was found unconscious and seriously injured in the Avenue Montagne in Paris on the morning of 31st January. The French Police have been investigating the assault, but they have been handicapped because Lieut.-Colonel Kittoe had not recovered consciousness sufficiently to make a statement. Her Majesty's Consul-General is keeping in touch with the French authorities. Lieut.-Colonel Kittoe has this morning been flown back from France to enter a hospital in this country.
