just beating their bonny chests, what would have been so hard arresting a us diplomat and throwing them into an Indian jail cell, I am sure that would have hit the americans proper.

She was freed on a $250,000 bail and she's facing up to 15 years for fraud and for making false statements. Her goose is cooked. Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.

But, does diplomatic immunity apply?Somebody outed the dep. consul general on the amount being paid. If you stay ready, no need to get ready.

Much as law is an arse, its never applied in vacuum, and that was rather stupid of the US authorities IMHO. India is a very strategic partner of the US, esp in the face of growing chinese influence. Nice reaction by India. TULIA.........UFUNZWE!
