None of this talks about what I was talking about. Why would a diplomat agent or not go around and kill ISI agents when if he had contacts with a diplomatic mission or even part of the CIA? He would have been "captured" and sent back like every spy has ever been especially for something as mundane as photos of army installations. Instead apparently he decided to shoot it out in the middle of Pakistan with two ISI agents and call for back up. It doesn't make much sense, and I would lean towards being a hold up. Maybe the CIA has decided it likes shooting people for no apparent reason and cause international incidences but given Pakistan's less than amazing ability to be cogent and coherent I wouldn't think so, but who knows maybe I am wrong.
Edit: It would seem that the more I read the less the "car jacking a US consulate diplomat story" seems plausible. He was most likely CIA and not a State Department official. His actions still seem strange though
I would have gone with this one though Aphrodite
Section II, Article 41 of the treaty, in its first paragraph regarding the “Personal inviolability of consular officers,” states:
“Consular officers shall not be liable to arrest or detention pending trial, except in the case of a grave crime and pursuant to a decision by the competent judicial authority.”
Diplomatic immunity may get a person off on parking tickets, but not murder. The US shouldn't be asking for his return on diplomatic immunity grounds, its plain stupid to think that dimplomatic immunity covers that.
