That this House welcomes the safe release of nine hostages, including four British students, who were held in West Papua by forces of the Free Papua Movement; deeply regrets the killing of the other two hostages, both Indonesians, and also the killing of several members of the Free Papua Movement by the Indonesian armed forces; calls upon the British Government to impress upon the Indonesian Government the need to refrain from any future acts of violence or reprisals against members of the Free Papua Movement and local inhabitants; and finally calls upon the British Government to press for a full investigation into the deaths of the Indonesian hostages and to make a full report on the current situation in the country.
