from the
India Office
The department of the British Government to which the Government of India reported between 1858 and 1947. The successor to the Court of Directors.
that correspondence has taken
place between that Department and the Foreign Office
on the subject of Lieutenant Voigt, and that
Telegram Lo.o03 ol the 8th August 1916, from the
British Minister at Teheran deals with the matter.
If this Officer and . ny other enemy subjects
similarly situated are in fact prisoners of war in
the hands 01 the British Government, it might
perhaps be advisable for information with regard
to such persons to be communicated to the Bureau.
.An enquiry for Lieutenant Voigt has recently
