Also there is a treaty between United States and India, under which,
if you commit offense that is punishable in a court of law of united

I should rephrase my earlier response as Maybe, but instead of No. WTO

Umm? How? I mean they are valid in US so there is a problem in US
I can understand if you don't agree with software patent but that does not
mean you should ignore them.
