<p>We were appalled by the murder of Giulio Regeni in Cairo. As soon as we were made
aware of reports of Mr Regeni's disappearance on 25 January, we contacted the Italian
government to offer our assistance. Foreign and Commonwealth Office Director-General
for Middle East and Africa renewed this offer to the Italian Ambassador to London
on 22 April. We continue to offer our full support to Italy. I have raised Mr Regeni's
case with the Egyptian authorities myself, as have senior officials. In these discussions
we have underlined the need for a full and transparent investigation. We remain in
contact with both the Italian and Egyptian authorities.</p>
