That this Government also had a legitimate interest in the prosecution of the suspect is also beyond question. What I would like to consider, however, is that the manner in which the custody of these suspects was obtained by a friendly Government was not consistent with international law and practice. I am made to understand that a relevant communication was issued by our Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But if you direct so, I will be happy to provide a supplementary answer regarding this particular aspect. I thank you."}
