A dispute best handled by India
by confuzzled dude Mon Jan 06, 2014 7:41 pm
"Martina E. Vandenberg’s Jan. 2 op-ed, “No pass for diplomats,” on an Indian diplomat’s arrest in New York over a wage dispute with a domestic employee, was one-sided.
The diplomat was the first complainant in this dispute, both in New York and in India. Additionally, the domestic worker’s employment contract is partly with the government of India, which pays for her medical care, travel and significant portions of her salary and living costs. Therefore, any dispute should be resolved in an Indian court. It is surprising that a preexisting legal case in India and Indian diplomatic initiatives have been ignored. This case is about not the mistreatment of a domestic employee but rather U.S. laws being gamed for immigration purposes.
India’s demands are not unreasonable. These include respecting Indian legal processes and affording our diplomats the same immunities and courtesies under the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations that the U.S. government seeks for its officials posted abroad"
