What did her lawyer claim her status was?

  • Defector

  • Diplomat

  • Prisoner-of-war

  • Civilian

Answer

The individual's attorney asserted her to be in the legal status of a prisoner-of-war (POW). This suggests that she was regarded as a combatant captured during an armed conflict and entitled to certain rights and protections under international law, such as humane treatment and repatriation at the end of the hostilities.
