To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
on 27 January (HL345), in forming their assessment of the case of Hajer Mansoor, what
consideration they have given to the findings of independent experts, in particular:
(1) the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention published on 7 January
2019; (2) the open letter published in The Guardian on 11 April 2019, signed by 54
signatories including prominent MPs and QCs; (3) an assessment by Amnesty International
published on 22 February 2019 declaring Bahraini political prisoner Hajer Mansoor’s
imprisonment to be arbitrary and in reprisal for Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei’s human rights
work; and (4) other relevant findings.
