Dude, you still did not get the point.. She is not an ordinary Indian citizen, she is an IFS officer working in Indian embassy.. She is representing India.. Next what US marshals can arrest anyone from Indian embassy in US because they did not have diplomatic immunity?? As I said, they could have asked her to report to police staton or DA's office considering her post.. And you did not reply me about Bharara's comment
Forget it , there are too many people who wants to show their moral superiority without even figuring out what happened .
AM going to post the same thing another member posted here
Only claims of disparity in Pay which is contentious considering the Nanny's Free House rent, Free food, Free access to chauffeur driven car, Free clothes, Free Medical Insurance, Free dental insurance, Free death Insurance, Diplomatic passport and its privileges and her salary. Her CTC would easily be 5,000 $ per month or more. There is NOT even a prima facie case against the Indian diplomat.
OH the poor underpaid maid, what a pity
Can the American apologists answer the questions below
1. In fact considering your history with illegal immigrants, Why was it that even though the nanny absconded from her work place in July and had her Indian passport revoked she was not arrested by the NYPD ?
2. Why was it that when the Delhi High court passed an injunction against the nanny that she was not declared an illegal fugitive in the eyes of the law ?
3. Why did the govt. of US provide such special treatment to an illegal Indian fugitive from law ?
4. Why did the US further provide a visa for her husband and child by 10th December and facilitate their escape into the US and THEN arrest the Indian diplomat on 12th December ?
5. It was the nanny who claimed a salary of more than 4,500$ when she filled the DS 160 form for A3 visa. Why is she not arrested for Visa fraud when she already had a contract with the diplomat for a far lesser salary ?
6. It can be clearly seen that the nanny was the one perpetuating the fraud, worst that can be claimed is that the Indian diplomat aided and abetted in this fraud (alleged).
Relevant clause is Article 41 which states,
1. 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. (Grave crime is usually defined as Murder, Rape, Robbery etc. )
2. Except in the case specified in paragraph 1 of this Article, consular officers shall not be committed to prison or liable to any other form of restriction in their personal freedom save in execution of a judicial decision of final effect.
3. If criminal proceedings are instituted against a consular officer, he must appear before the competent authorities. Nevertheless, the proceedings shall be conducted with the respect due to him by reason of his official position and, except in the case specified in paragraph 1 of this Article, in a manner which will hamper the exercise of consular functions as little as possible.
Article 72 does discuss customarily favored treatment beyond the limits of the Convention. This could be what infuriates Indian officials so much.
privilege that consider exists under Article 72.
It is crystal clear America is at fault , your diplomats can murder, manslaughter and also provide immunity to American citizen responsible for Genocide but oh boy Visa fraud is a big ..no ...no...
