Is he more than just a diplomat? wakakaka

Wakakaka, I’m back after more than 3 weeks on the road (hence my short posts with smaller fonts sans photos, pictures or links).
Thought I might start off with some political snippet ;-). Here goes:
(1) TMI – NZ Foreign Ministry says sorry to its government for bungling diplomat’s case
The fallout from the diplomatic immunity case involving a Malaysian diplomat accused of sexual assault is being felt in the New Zealand administration with the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) today apologising to its government for the way it handled the matter.
I believe Warrant Officer Muhammad Rizalman Ismail would be better off standing trial in NZ rather than being investigated by a Malaysian military Board of Inquiry, wakakaka.
From coments read in TMI, Muhammad Rizalman has already been found guilty (by the readers) until proven innocent, and probably by readers of other online news media, wakakaka, and if assess as innocent by the military Board of Inquiry, will still be found (in fact, even more) guilty by the readers, wakakaka again.
Incidentally, on diplomatic immunity, the USA has been the greatest culprit of all and thus most hypocritical in the following case of an Indian consular officer.
We have been following the very recent case of Indian consular official Devyani Khobragade who was, as reported, detained, hand-cuffed, strip searched, DNA swabbed and held in a federal holding cell in New York. She was arrested on charges relating to allegations of non-payment of minimum/prevailing wage (as per US laws) and for fraudulently lying about the wages to be paid on a visa application for her domestic worker.
