Mr. Ashley

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will discuss the imprisonment of Sita Ram Maskey with the Nepal Government.

Mr. Maskey was imprisoned in May 1987 under Nepal's Public Security Act. His case is cited in the Amnesty International report on Nepal published in November last year. We have drawn the attention of the Nepalese Government to this report.
