ISLAMABAD: Foreign Office on Thursday said it cannot share information about Raymond Davis case at this stage because the matter is sub-judice.

Foreign Office spokesman Abdul Basit, in his weekly briefing, was confronted with a volley of questions about the incident in which three people were killed in Lahore but he expressed inability to respond to these queries.

The spokesman, however, pointed out that Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani made a categorical statement on the floor of the National Assembly on Wednesday assuring that the law would take its course on the issue.
