Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, if he will withdraw the diplomatic papers of Sri Lanka's Defence Attache to the UK and expel him following reports of that attache making death threats to protesters.

​We remain deeply concerned by this high profile incident. We welcome the Government of Sri Lanka's assurances that they are carrying out a full investigation. It would not be appropriate to provide any further comment until such investigations have concluded.
