f. The members of the “administrative and technical Staff” are the members of Staff of the mission employed in the administrative and technical service of the mission g. The “members of the service Staff” are members of the Staff in the domestic service of the mission. In the same vein, Article 3 on its part stipulates the functions of a diplomatic mission thus; 1. The functions of a diplomatic mission consist inter allia in: a. Representing the sending State in the receiving State. b. Protecting in the receiving State the interest of the sending State and of its nationals, within the limits permitted by international law. c. Negotiating with the Government of the receiving State. d. Ascertaining by all lawful means conditions and developments in the receiving State, and reporting thereon to the Government of the sending State. e. Promoting friendly relations between the sending State and the receiving State and developing their economic, cultural and scientific relations. However, nothing in the Convention shall be presumed as precluding or preventing the performance of Consular functions by a diplomatic mission. It is obvious from the above provisions that diplomatic Agents are Ambassadors or High Commissioners, and other diplomatic officers and Staff who are appointed by the sending State and deal directly with the receiving or host State. In this case, the Applicant claims that he was appointed Consular General by the Defendant and by virtue of his position his arrest, indictment, trial and conviction by the host State without the Defendant intervening on his behalf is contrary to p. 19
