Italian Marines case: Tribunal rules India entitled to compensation but can't prosecute them

New Delhi, Jul 2 (UNI) The Permanent Court of Arbitration at The Hague on Thursday said India is entitled to get compensation in in connection with the 2012 killing of two crew members of a fishing boat off the coast of Kerala by Italian marines guarding an oil tanker case.
However, the Tribunal also said the two marines can't be prosecuted in India because they enjoy immunity as they were officers of the State.
Talking to reporters here during virtual weekly press briefing, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said India has won the Italian marines case at the international tribunal.
