Inshalla I’ll post the objective part soon.

Q-1(vi) what will be the answer?
 

Sri-Lankan High Commissioner in Islamabad, if found involved in a serious crime in Pakistan, can be:
(a) Arrested by the local police and put to trial.
(b) Arrested and handed over to his home Government.
(c) Asked to leave the country, by the local authorities.
(d) None of these.

I think option D is corre4ct coz

Option is wrong, he cant be put to rial
option B also wrong, he cant be arested & handed over coz he is immuned frm it
option C also seems wrong, coz he cant be asked to leave by local authorities. Only the state can then ask him to leave.
So option is i think correct is my opinoin.
However, correction needed f im wrong.
