    Explanation:
    • Diplomatic Immunity is a privilege provided to diplomats in the country in which they got posted. Generally, these privileges will be in the form of exemption from certain laws and taxes. This may be civil or criminal.
    • However, it is possible for the diplomat’s home country to waive immunity. But this can happen only when the individual has committed a ‘serious crime’, anything unconnected to their diplomatic role or has witnessed such a crime.

    Hence both statements 1&3 are correct.
