Prime Minister Theresa May has said she will look into what more can be done for the family of a British woman who died while living in Eilat.
During Prime Minister’s Questions today, Hannah Bardell, Scottish National Party MP for Livingston, pressed Mrs May for action on behalf of the family of Julie Pearson, from Kinross in Scotland, who died last November in mysterious circumstances.
Ms Bardell said: “A year ago this week my constituent lost her niece Julie, believed to be unlawfully killed in Eilat, Israel.
“Her [Mrs May’s] predecessor was good enough to give me support, as was the FCO, but after a year of writing letters meetings and putting pressure on the Israeli government, the family are no closer to justice for Julie.
