Harry Dunn's tragic death in 2019 raised significant questions about the Foreign Office's handling of the case involving diplomatic immunity. The incident involved Anne Sacoolas, wife of a CIA operative.
An independent inquiry has been launched by David Lammy to scrutinize how officials managed the request for extraditing Sacoolas, who left the UK claiming diplomatic protections.
Criticism has been directed at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office regarding their response in the Dunn case, with discussions around potential actions that could have ensured Sacoolas faced trial in the UK.
Dame Anne Owers DBE will lead the review, focused on the decisions made by the FCDO and the effectiveness of their approach in the Dunn situation.
