No.327/27
Sir,
MARKED URGENT.
From Ministry for Foreign Affairs (No.392)
Canton.
11th August, 1927.
47
I have the honour to refer to my letter of
the 27th July requesting that the famous robber chief Liu
Lun of T'o Kou in Tung Kun District who was arrested by
the Hong Kong Government on 27th July, be handed over to
the custody of an official sent by the Chief of the Canton
Police and brought back to this city, and also to your
reply which I received. According to a reliable report
which I have received the Hong Kong Government has
permitted Lou Lun to be released on $10,000 bail. Although
I would not venture to assert whether or not it is correct
in order to take due precautions I feel it incumbent on me to request you at once to telegraph to Hong Kong that Lou
Lun should on no account be released on bail in order to
prevent his inflicting fresh calamity on the people.
I have the honour to request, the favour of a reply.
(Sd.) Wu Ch'ao-shu,
Minister for Foreign Affairs.
