Your telegram No. 1709.
Hong Kong Border.
We assume you will be sending us detailed report as soon
as de-briefing of Knight has been completed. We should however
be grateful for early interim telegraphic report on main
features of his return to British territory. This has been
given wide press coverage and we should like to have some
official information against which to check reports. For
example, are you in a position to say whether his escape was
genuine or whether it was contrived by Chinese?
