37

A Court of Enquiry was held

to investigate both of these incidents,

and found that the riflemen concerned

had acted correctly and in accordance

with their orders. It is unfortunate

that one of the wounded men has since

died; a Civil Death Enquiry is being

held into the circumstances of his

death.

In the circumstances the

I feel that no blame can

be attached to the guards,

authorities had no other recourse-but

to resort to stern measures

foree

a policy which was deliberately adopted

under instructions from His Majesty's

Vince

they

were acting

Ma

accordance with their instinctims

همه

pursuance of

their

duty to prevent the internees from escaping

Government.
