London, March 15 (RHC)-- Human rights lawyers are preparing to sue British Foreign Secretary William Hague over the alleged use of British intelligence in assisting U.S. drone attacks in Pakistan.
The case is being brought on behalf of Noor Khan, whose father was killed in a U.S. strike. Lawyers say British intelligence officers who provided information used in drone strikes may be liable as "secondary parties to murder."
