How are foreign nationals to be treated when under detention or arrest, and why?
What will be an ideal response?
Officers who want to interrogate a person claiming diplomatic immunity should request the diplomatic identification and check the reverse of the card. A general guideline is to treat foreign nationals and diplomats as you would want Americans to be treated under similar circumstances abroad.
Partly because of concern that foreign nationals charged with crimes in the United States will not fully understand their rights within the complex U.S. legal system, the Vienna Convention Treaty, signed in 1963, gives foreign nationals the right to contact their consulate in the event of their detention or arrest. Another treaty signed in 1972 provides diplomatic immunity for certain individuals.
