TIME FOR A FULL INQUIRY INTO DUBAI MURDER
Published: 17/02/2010 10:29
Mr.
Mohammed Shafiq Chief Executive of the Ramadhan Foundation comments:
“It
is concerning that British passports have been used in the assassination
of
Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai
allegedly
by Israeli intelligence agency Mossad. If these allegations are proven
this will be a major breach of international law and the sovereignty of
both Dubai and the United Kingdom. I urge the British Foreign Secretary
David Milliband to begin a full inquiry into the circumstances of these
allegations and for tough action to be taken against those that have
cloned and misused British passports.
Whatever our views on the Israeli and Palestinian conflict we can surely
come together to urge all sides to respect international law and the
sovereignty of both the UK and Dubai.
If
the allegations that Israel has stolen British citizen’s passports and
their identities are proven then the British Government should tell
Israel of serious repercussions and this being a strong indictment of
Israel’s disregard for international law.
Mr
Foreign Secretary it is time for an immediate inquiry.”
