3 As if in some doubt as to whether this statement is not too absolute, Satow adds: “ In any case, his person continues to be inviolable.” Vattel (IV, chap. 9, p. 125) indicated as the reason for the retention by an ambassador of his diplomatic rights and privileges after the termination of his mission that he must “ return to his principal, to whom he is to make a report of his embassy.” This reason can hardly be said to be operative in the case of Mr.BakhmetefF.
