Lawmakers are calling for an investigation into the death of a British Jew in Germany to be reopened.A group of British parliament members signed a motion calling for the reopening of the British inquest into the death of Jeremiah Duggan, a 22-year-old Briton who died under mysterious circumstances in Wiesbaden, Germany in 2003, the Guardian reported.Duggan was attending an anti-war conference in Germany sponsored by the Schiller Institute. Germany claims that Duggan killed himself, a view rejected by a British inquest. The lawmakers say that “compelling forensic evidence published in March 2007 on the fourth anniversary of Duggan’s death casts doubt on the current version of events.”
