"A Case of Immunity" is an episode of "Columbo" that is very good. However, I should note one thing. Altough the show is about folks from a mythical Muslim nation, the main actors in it were not--one being a Sicilian-American and the other a Puerto Rican/Basque-American. This isn't very unusual though it might have been nice to have Muslim actors in these roles.
The story begins with a staged murder and robbery meant to discredit dissidents from a fictional nation. Then, to keep things secret, the diplomat organizing all this kills his accomplice. Now Columbo is investigating two murders and is spending much time in diplomatic circles. What makes this tough is that the killer has diplomatic immunity....so what is Columbo to do??
I enjoyed the change of venue in this story, though it does seem impobable that such a case would be handled by the Los Angeles Police. Still, it is enjoyable and Columbo's interactions with the killer are amazingly fun to watch.
