Pakistan bars US diplomat from leaving country - Times of India

Pakistan has prevented a US diplomat involved in a fatal road accident in Islamabad to leave the country, a move that could further strain the bilateral ties.
Pakistani media showed footage of a US plane at Nur Khan airbase in Rawalpindi near Islamabad that reportedly arrived yesterday to fly back defence attache Colonel Joseph Emanuel Hall.


Colonel Hall on April 7 jumped a traffic signal in Islamabad and hit a motorbike carrying two men. One of them was killed. His father had approached the Islamabad High Court to stop the diplomat from leaving the country.

I think that they will probably have to let him go at some point. What happens to disgraced diplomats who act in a criminal way ? They must face justice somewhere.

I think the whole "diplomats can't be tried for crimes" thing is ridiculous.

Yes, I understand that they want to stop diplomats being tried for nonsense, which would happen. At the same time, these people act like there is no law.

If a crime like this happens, they should throw the diplomat under the bus and hand him over to Pakistan for trial.

In this instance it looks quite straightforward. But in a different scenario there is nothing to stop a rogue state fabricating evidence against a diplomat.
I would not like to see characters like this walk free. Maybe a trial in a US court would be appropriate.

Well, if the US would actually act, then its own diplomats would then be forced to act properly. If other countries also did the same, then it would stop this nonsense.
