<p>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office has provided consular assistance to Mr Juwaheer’s
family, which has included supporting the family during their visit to Brazil, providing
a list of local lawyers, and helping them to arrange Mr Juwaheer’s repatriation to
the United Kingdom. While the Right hon. Member will understand we cannot interfere
in the internal affairs of another country, we have made known our interest in this
case with the court, the Brazilian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Public Prosecutor
appointed to represent Mr Juwaheer’s interests. We will remain in contact with the
Judge and the Court to maintain our interest in Mr Jawaheer’s case and to push for
progress in the investigation into his death.</p>
