1. THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN ADU TALIB AND PEID OF THE HONG KONG TEAM REFERRED TO IN PARAGPAPH 3 OF THE FIRST TUP ORIGINATED IN A SUGGESTION BY ABU TALI? THAT IT WOULD ASSIST HONG KONG IF OSMAN AND SHAMSUDDIN COULD BE DEPORTED TO MALAYSIA BECAUSE IT WOULD BE EASIER FCP THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT TO OBTAIN ORDER FOR EXTRADITION FROM THE MALAYSIAN COURTS THAN IT WOULD BE FOR THEM TO OBTAIN ORDERS FOR EXTRADITION FROM THE UK COURT. REID SAID THAT WE WOULD REFLECT ON THIS IDEA AND REVERT.

2. ON REFLECTION, WE PROPOSE TO TURN DOWN! THE SUGGESTION PAPTLY BECAUSE WE BELIEVE IT IS NOT A FEASIT LE COURSE HI LAW AND PARTLY SECAUSE WE JUDGE THAT ONCE FETURNED TO MALAYSIA IT IS CT LIKELY THAT OSMAN AND SHANSUED IN MOULT TE RETURNED TO HOLD KONG FOR TRIAL. SO FAR AS FEASICILITY IS CONCERNED, WE HAVE CONSULTER LONDON COUNSEL AND WITHOUT ANY DETAILED PESEKPOK, IT APPEARS THAT:

(4) THERE WAY PE TO CROWNDS FOR DEPORTATION OF SHAMSUDDIN, EVEN IF THE ALLYSIS WERE TO REMOVE HIS PASSPORT:

(5) EVER IT SOMAN HERE LIATLO TO CERCETATION, THEPE MUST DE STEPS HE COULD TAKE BY WAY OF HATERS CORPUS OF APPEAL TO PREVENT HIS REPORTATION:

(C) THERE Y WELL TACTICAL DIFFICULTIES IN ENSURING THAT OSMAN AND SHAM SUDD NU RETURN TO KUALA LUMPUR IF EXPELLED FROM THE UK:
