§ Mr. HattersleyThe High Commission has reported such evidence as is available about Mrs. Leigh Matthews' murder. Unfortunately the only witness, her husband, was shot at the same time and died three weeks later. We have studied his statements but are aware of no other source from which information could be expected. The Cyprus Government are not in control of Kyrenia, where the murder was done.
