HC Deb 12 June 1969 vol 784 cc288-9W
54. Mr. Driberg

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, in view of the new evidence supplied to him, he will order a fresh inquiry into the murder of Miss Lily Volpert, for which Mahmood Hassein Mattan was hanged in 1952, mainly on the evidence of Harold Cover.

Mr. Callaghan

I have asked the Chief Constable of the South Wales Constabulary for a report on the case and will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
