Japanese term or phrase: 身柄の保護
The sentence is 日本領事館が、私たちの「保護要請」を受け入れたのであれば「身柄の保護」もすべ きだ。

It's in reference to refugees who seek assistance at embassies or consulates (in this case, Japanese), and whether they get that assistance or are, for example, turned over to the local authorities and repatriated to their country of origin.
