An early Day Motion calling for a new inquest into the suspicious death of British student Jeremiah Duggan has been tabled in Parliament.

The motion, tabled by Labour MP for Liverpool Riverside Louise Ellman, states that further investigation is “urgently required”.

It urges the Attorney General to liaise with German authorities “to establish the truth” and notes that forensic evidence published in March by Jeremiah’s parents “casts doubt on the current version of events”.

It also notes that a British inquest rejected the German finding of suicide and “calls on the government to ensure that, with the assistance of mutual aid treaties, a full investigation into Duggan’s death is carried out”.

The motion had 11 signatories as the JC went to press, including those of Jewish MPs Lee Scott (Conservative, Ilford North) and Harry Cohen (Labour, Leyton and Wanstead), and Hendon and Finchley and Golders Green Labour MPs Andrew Dismore and Rudi Vis.

Twenty-two-year-old Jeremiah was found dead on a motorway in Wiesbaden in 2003, having earlier attended a meeting of the Schiller Institute, believing it to be holding an anti-war conference.

In fact, it is part of a global network headed by convicted fraudster Lyndon LaRouche, who espouses anti-British and antisemitic conspiracy theories. Jeremiah had disclosed that he was Jewish at the Schiller Institute meeting.

Jeremiah’s mother, Erica Duggan, said: “I hope all rabbis will ask their congregations to support us — we do know this organisation incites hatred of Jews.

“The most important reason why this motion should be signed is because we are fighting for justice. This could happen to any Briton who is in Germany — being found on the side of the road and having their death brushed under the carpet by saying it is suicide.”

The Duggans have a memorial fund to meet the cost of their battle.

Mrs Duggan, who has just received a 1,500 euro (£1,025) bill for the cost of translating a pathology report, said: “I have no representational or petition rights in Germany and I have to have everything translated through court-certified translators.”
