Conservative sympathiser of Sri Lankan government accused of genocide and war crime, Dr.Fox is now accused.
Dr Fox has been accused of breaking ministerial code by allowing Adam Werritty, a close friend who was the minister’s best man, to accompany him on an official visit to Sri Lanka.
The defence secretary told parliament last month that Werritty, who has distributed business cards describing himself as Dr Fox’s personal adviser, had met him 14 times in 16 months but had not travelled with him on any official overseas visits.
The MoD has since admitted Werritty met Fox during the visit, but said it was in a personal capacity.
