Khobragade had left for India, a statement by the ministry of external affairs confirmed.

The Indian deputy consul whose arrest and strip-search in New York touched off a diplomatic spat between the U.S. and India has been indicted — and she has been asked to leave the country.

Devyani Khobragade, 39, the Indian diplomat whose arrest in Manhattan last month sparked an international firestorm, was indicted Thursday, the feds said.

India’s overwrought reaction to the arrest of one of its diplomats in the United States is unworthy of a democratic government.

Both the Department of State and US Marshals made it clear, standard procedures have been followed in this instance.

NEW YORK: Preet Bharara, the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, released the following statement on the arrest of Dr. Devyani Khobragade, the Deputy Consul General of the Indian Consulate in New York:

All airport passes for U.S. diplomats have been withdrawn; import clearances including that of liquor for the U.S. Embassy have been stopped.

So here’s the photo, my photo, which quickly lit up the world’s social networks and news websites.
