CONDUCT OF THE IRAQI INTEREST SECTION, EMBASSY OF THE HASHEMITE KINGDOM OF JORDAN

That this House notes that, on 30th January 1995, Z. Ibrahim, Head of the Iraqi Interest Section at the Embassy of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordon, claimed in a faxed letter to the honourable Member for Birmingham, Selly Oak that her letter of 9th November 1994 requesting a response on the subject of the Iraqi regime's policy of mutilating offenders had not reached the Embassy but, if a copy would be forwarded, immediate action would be taken; condemns the failure of Mr Ibrahim to respond to two further letters on the subject; is horrified that such a policy should be in force at all; calls on the Government strongly to condemn Iraq's actions; and demands a response from Iraq's representatives in the United Kingdom.
