Following Parliamentary Question by
Eric Heffer is for written reply on 20th January.
"To ask what were the circumstances in which
73 year old Mr. Li Chungkun and 78 year old
Mr. Ma Ching-Lung were arrested in Hong Kong;
what were the charges preferred against them
and the lengths of their sentences; and
whether in view of their age, he will
arrange for a remission to permit their
release".
Grateful if material for reply may reach us
not later than 9.00 hours on Monday 20th January.
We have been unable to identify either of these
prisoners with any of those mentioned in the list
forwarded with McLaren's letter to Carter of
11th December, 1968.
