Peru judge orders GE's Immelt, Jack Welch arrested

Reuters says: Peru judge orders GE's Immelt, Jack Welch arrested

In the globalised world, with MNCs operating in multiple countries with completely varying laws, amnesties, protections and extradition treaties, we may see more such cases. India had unsuccessfully tried to get the boss of Union Carbide to stand trial in India in the Bhopal gas-leak case. It never happened.

I can't see USA extraditing Immelt and Welch to stand trial in Peru.

Let us see.

  1. can't imagine this. I'm sure US will not honour the request of Peru. BTW thanks for the Blogroll.
