This incident of an FBI agent arrested in Pakistan is hoped by U.S. officials to be more easily resolved than the 2011 case of a CIA contractor who got arrested and charged for killing two men. CIA contractor Raymond Davis said he believed the men were trying to rob him. According to CNN, the case resulted in a local anti-American sentiment and caused resentment until the United States government agreed to pay the families of the two men. After the compensation, Davis was freed.
FBI agent arrested in Pakistan is expected to undergo trial, says Anwar. He said that it's a matter of "upholding Pakistan's dignity and honor. (Cox) acted illegally and his arrest is perfectly legal."
