In Balogun (1974), we proved that a finite group in which every subgroup is conjugately pure is necessarily Abelian and we left open the infinite case. In this paper we settle this problem positively for soluble, locally soluble groups and certain classes of groups which include the FC-groups. In the last section of this paper we characterize groups which are conjugately pure in every containing group.
