[By a vote of 49 in favor to 4 against, with 41 abstentions, the Fourth Committee of the United Nations General Assembly on Nov-ember 14, 1963, decided to grant the request for hearing of Henrique Galvao, a Portuguese exile in Brazil.
[Before making its decision, the Committee received an opinion from United Nations Legal Counsel, C. A. Stavropoulos, reproduced here, which concluded that the United Nations could not assure the petitioner that he would be immune from legal process while in the United States. The Committee also heard a statement by the United States, reproduced at page 173, pointing to the possibility of Portugal’s initiating proceedings against Mr. Galvao under an extradition treaty with the United States.
[On December 9 and 10, 1963, Mr. Galvao appeared before the Committee, and he left the United States on December 10, 1963.]
