HC Deb 12 November 1984 vol 67 c71W
Mr. Terry Davis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why Mr. Mohammed Siddique, who is on remand at Winston Green prison, has not been allowed to grow a beard and was forcibly shaved during the week ended 2 November.

Mr. Mellor

Mr. Siddique has not been forcibly shaved. He has been advised that if he wishes to grow a beard he must apply to the governor to be allowed to do so; he has not done so.
