Hide & seek in the Green Zone

A member of the Iraqi parliament has accused American authorities of sheltering the country's culture Minister Asad Kamal al-Hashimi who is wanted on charges of murder. MP Mithal al-Alusi contends that Mr. al-Hashimi remains in the Green Zone where he is under the protection of the US Embassy. Should Mr. al-Alusi's charges prove true this would certainly be unprecedented because the American government has never protected anyone accused of murder before. Or have they?
