Lawyers Prepare Lawsuit Over Alleged British Role in Drone Attacks 
-------------------------------------------------------------------



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."
