US has threatened Pakistan that if Raymond Davis is not released, then there is a possibility that US aid to Pakistan will be cut.

The three-member delegation demanded in meetings with Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and other leaders that Pakistan release Raymond Davis, who was arrested on 27th January 2011 after shooting dead two Pakistani motorcyclists. Representative Buck McKeon, chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, said he told the Pakistani leaders that Congress was working on the budget. While the representative John Kline predicted that many lawmakers would support cutting aid if the American, who the United States insists has diplomatic immunity, is not freed.
