Message | It is clear that there is a lack of evidence. This individual is innocent until proven guilty and as a Baltusian citizen, he should be tried in a baltusian court. We will continue to use all diplomatic tools possible to try and return this individual back to Baltusia. Thank you. Matthew Brown Foreign Affairs minister |

Message | Foreign Secretary-Elect Brown, I see from the briefing notes you have provided that the Confederation does not allow torture - can we, therefore, confirm that the suspect was not in anyway physically harmed - video evidence, for instance. Can we also be sure that the conditions he is being detained in are suitable. Can we also discover when this will be processed through the New Endralonian justice system and can we be sure this man will be provided with adequate legal representation. Thank you President Samson Moriarty |

Message | Whilst this is indeed an interesting development, the Government of Baltusia must be shown this evidence. However, I personally distrust what New Endralon is saying, and recent law proposals there only cement that level of distrust. Should the individual be found guilty, with or without hard evidence and the approval of our Government, we have a duty to request that the suspect is extradited back to Baltusia. New Endralon allows the death penalty for capital offences, meaning a citizen of this country would be at risk of execution should they not be brought home. Not only is the process of executions, which are thankfully banned in this country, barbaric, to kill a potentially innocent person is unthinkable. Vice President Valentine Perkins BDGP Chairwoman and Home Secretary |

Message | I would like to assure both President Moriarty and Vice President Perkins that we are continually working diplomatically with the New Endralonian government and I have asked them the questions set out by President Moriarty. I have primarily informed the New Endralonian government that the easiest and best solution would be for the extradition of the detained individual back to Baltusia, so that we can establish if the individual is a terrorist or not. It is in the interests of human rights to ensure that one of our citizens is protected by his right not to be tortured, detained and have right to adequate legal representation. The Justice Minister is working with me currently to establish the quality of the New Endralonian judicial system. We will report any further updates as to how diplomatic proceedings and we will report our findings regarding the Judicial system. Matthew Brown Foreign Secretary-Elect and Republican Deputy Leader |

Message | We feel it is unfair that this individual may be able to escape justice. Clearly s/he voluntarily travelled to New Endralon and committed a crime. They face the consequences of that crime, rather than be left off because of the public relations effect on this government. If their crime is punishable by death, they deserve to die. Kathleen Wiley Majority Speaker of the House OOC: I think Foreign Secretary-designate may be a better term, given that we did not elect Mr. Brown ;) |
Date | 16:49:16, April 13, 2017 CET | From | Baltusian International Democratic Party | To | Debating the Update on evidence of individual arrested by new endralon authorities |
Message | ooc: Mr Brown won his seat on the Athosia list as one of the 31 Republicans elected there. |
Date | 16:52:38, April 13, 2017 CET | From | Democratic People's Movement | To | Debating the Update on evidence of individual arrested by new endralon authorities |
Message | OOC: I mean as Foreign Secretary, the '-elect' suffix is for someone who has been elected to an office but hasn't yet taken it up. '-designate' is more accurate because Brown was appointed. I'm jesting anyway ;) |

Message | ooc: Ah ok haha |
Date | 18:27:28, April 13, 2017 CET | From | Patriotic Party of Baltusia | To | Debating the Update on evidence of individual arrested by new endralon authorities |
Message | OOC: Yes sorry, designate of course is better. |
