5th February 1*?>4
My dear Minifiter,
I have Just learn^t from Hif-
llajeety'e ConBul at Auwaz that three Bahraini
living at Oueoah have been imprisoned for
not having Persian nationality papers ana
the t a number of others have been threatened
with a similar fate.
2. Your ^celleney will find in the
aria ives of the Ministry a voluminous but
not very recent covrenponoence on the subject
of pressure brought to Dear on Bahrainin
living in Persia t© accept Persian papers.
I can say with confidence that the only
effect of tnis pressure has been to cause
inconvenience to perfectly harmless people
and to arouse Indignation in Bahrain. I
am also confident that Your Excellency will
share my view that the present is a
singularly inopportune moment to revive
a course of action which is bound to leac
t© controversy and I therefore trust that
you will maa use ye?r influence t© secure
^ the release of the three men who have been
imprisoned and to protect other Bahrainis
from being oisquieteo.
(signed) B.H.Hoare
Hit Excellency
Mirza Seyyid Bagher Khan Kazemt,
Minister for Foreign Affaire.
