Lahore: The Lahore High Court on Monday ruled that Raymond Davis immunity issue would be decided by the trial court.
Pakistan Foreign Office submitted its vague reply to the court regarding Davis immunity, stating that Raymond Davis had been issued diplomatic passport on US government’s request and that the USĀ had demanded his release on January 27.
Deputy Attorney General Pakistan prayed that court should decide the Davis case, adding that the FO would produce all the record in connection with Davis.
He informed the court that no record was available with the foreign office regarding diplomatic immunity of Davis.
LHC Chief Justice remarked that the foreign office did not inform the court whether the US national enjoy diplomatic immunity.
The court disposed of all the applications regarding Davis diplomatic immunity.
Legal experts are of the view that after disposal of application Davis could be handed over to the US.
Raymond Davis, a CIA contractor, involved in killing two Pakistanis in Lahore on January 27 is detained in Kot Lakh Pat Jail.
