That doesn’t seem to work in the context of MLAT, although I imagine that it depends a little on the country and the case, even though it shouldn’t.

Note also that the ban on “cruel and unusual punishment” is actually in the US constitution.

See also: Assange.

The process against Assange in the UK looked like a particularly horrible example of a kangaroo court.

But New Zealand isn't the UK.

I know nothing about the process against Kim or laws in NZ, but the comparison to Assange doesn't work.

The Five Eyes have each others’ backs. As we can see with Assange, the law doesn’t even factor in to it.
