Debate between Tahir Ali and Anne-Marie Trevelyan

Tuesday 18th July 2023 Commons Chamber

[Tahir Ali (Birmingham, Hall Green) (Lab)]

The Minister is aware of the arrest of Yasin Malik, a Kashmiri political prisoner whose only crime is opposing the Indian military occupation of Kashmir. What talks have been had with the Indian Government about his death penalty?

[Anne-Marie Trevelyan]

As I said in response to an earlier question, the UK opposes the death penalty in every country in the world, including India.
