Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent discussions his Department has had with US officials on the status of British prisoner Kris Maharaj.
We continue to register our strong interest in Mr Maharaj's case with the US authorities, most recently with the filing of an amicus curiae brief. Mr Maharaj's discovery motions were denied by the Magistrate Judge on 30 April 2018. His legal team must now consider the options available to them. Consular staff last visited Mr Maharaj on 8 June 2018.
