SUBJECT:

CASE OF DERRICK GREGORY

In your letter of 30 August 1988 you confirmed

that the Prime Minister would be prepared to make

a plea to the Malaysian Prime Minister and to the

Governor of Penang, requesting the commutation of

the death sentence on Derrick Gregory, should the

Penang Pardons Board uphold the sentence passed on

him. The text of the plea was agreed at that

time.

Our High Commission in Kuala Lumpur now confirm

that the Penang Pardons Board will consider

Gregory's case on 8 June. The High Commissioner

is holding the approved text of the Prime

Minister's plea for use as necessary. I enclose a

copy for ease of reference.

Enclosures flag(s)

Eight Hong Kong belongers, who have also been

convicted of drugs offences in Malaysia, may also

have their appeal considered at the same Pardons

Board meeting. I shall be writing to you

separately on that case.
