Lord Ahmed

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will raise with the Indian government the health of Mohammed Yasin Malik. [HL2078]

Baroness Scotland of Asthal

The Minister of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, Peter Hain, raised the detention of members of the All Party Hurriyat Conference, including Mr. Malik, with the Indian authorities during his visit to India in November last year. Some have since been released. We will continue to make known our concerns about the others, including Mr. Malik.
