Binyam Mohammed - Various records and section 16 request

M Bimmler made this Freedom of Information request to Foreign and Commonwealth Office

This request has been withdrawn by the person who made it. There may be an explanation in the correspondence below.

From: M Bimmler

11 May 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

please supply me with all records you hold with relevance to the
Attorney-General's preliminary investigation into the "Binyam
Mohammed" case, specifically the Foreign Secretary's Public
Interest Immunity certificates.

I hope that I have clarified my request enough as to facilitate
your internal search and to ensure that my request is covered by
the cost limit. Should that, however, not be the case, I'd be
grateful for any assistance as to how I can narrow down my request,
especially through the provision of a schedule of the records held.

I am aware that several exceptions may apply to the records
requested and therefore I'd ask you to clearly specify for each
exemption (in case you cite any), to which record (or class of
records) it applies.

Last, I would ask you pursuant to section 16 of the FOIA and the
relevant sections of the Code of Practice, to provide me with an
outline or index of all records you hold with relevance to the
"Binyam Mohammed" case (not limited to the ongoing formal
investigations). This request is however secondary in importance to
my requests above and if (though only if) it is not possible to
answer all my requests due to the cost limit provisions, I shall
ask you to disregard my Section 16 request.

Yours faithfully,

Michael Bimmler
