    Not a very good country to have extradition treaties.... Iran is known to threaten and exterminate their own citizens and if such a citizen "escapes" to SL and requests protection, he can be extradited to Iran and face probable death.

    That's human rights organizations' duty.

    Buffalo, why do we need to give protection to Iranian criminals? Let them handle their own culprits
