To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will make representations to the Malaysian authorities on the conclusion of the investigation by the Malaysian Human Rights Commission into involvement by the state in the abduction of Pastor Raymond Koh in 2017.

We work with the UN, G7, and other multilateral fora to promote FoRB. The Prime Minister's Special Envoy for FoRB, Fiona Bruce MP, has written to the Malaysian High Commissioner to the UK about the disappearance of Pastor Raymond Koh, lodging her interest on this issue.
