Lahore High Court today regarding immunity of arrested CIA contractor
Raymond Davis.
An Additional District and Sessions Judge (AD&SJ) on March 03, 2011
rejected the application of US national Raymond seeking diplomatic
immunity in murder trial against him.
The court held that the accused did not enjoy immunity as the required
certificate by Foreign Ministry was not submitted.
AD&SJ Muhammad Yousaf Aujla was hearing the murder trial inside Kot
Lakhpat Jail against Raymond Davis for killing two Pakistanis.
Lahore High Court Chief Justice Ijaz Ahmad Chaudhry had heard the
petitions regarding Raymond's immunity as the Deputy Attorney General
sought time from the court to reply on behalf of the Foreign Ministry.
The Lahore High Court on the last hearing strongly directed the minister
concerned to clear the status of Davis on March 14.
